The book presents a well-researched history of the writers’ compound set up in 1935 in a green Moscow suburb, where hundreds of prominent men and women of letters lived, including the Nobel Prize winner Boris Pasternak. The mix of personal memoirs, anecdotes, social history and literary biography makes for a unique and absorbing read. The style of writing with its wide vocabulary and expressive turn of phrase adds interest and depth for the reader. Written in Russian, with an introduction, table of contents, image captions and abridged history in English.
