Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the lives of ordinary people in early 20th century Russia, against the backdrop of revolutionary upheaval. The author masterfully crafts vivid portraits of individuals grappling with poverty, political unrest, and the relentless struggle for survival. The book delves into the complex relationship between social class, personal conviction, and the pursuit of a better future. We encounter individuals whose lives are deeply intertwined with the political climate, as seen through the experiences of a locksmith who was a member of a strike committee, and a teacher whose outspokenness leads to his dismissal. The author also probes the psychological underpinnings of revolutionary fervor, examining the motivations of those who are willing to risk everything for their ideals, and those who choose to endure hardship in the hope of a brighter tomorrow. The stark contrasts in the characters' views of the world offer a powerful commentary on the broader human condition and the search for meaning within a period of profound social change. This insightful exploration of human nature and the complexities of revolutionary Russia provides a poignant and timeless reflection on the enduring power of ideals and the fragility of hope.
