Russian book in English Language Dramas of the Revolution by Mikhail Shatrov #34 $17.95 This is Russian book in English Language Dramas of the Revolution by Mikhail Shatrov. Book was translated from Russian into English by Cynthia Carlile and Sharon McKee; published in Moscow, USSR; 1990; Progress Publisher. In over a quarter of a century of play writing Mikhail Shatrov has turned again and again to the Revolution and the people who were at the center of those momentous events: Bukharin, Trotsky, Sverdlov, Stalin and many others, but most importantly Lenin. Not the Lenin portrayed so often before - more saint than human: but a man of firm convictions who nevertheless knew doubt and despair. Greatly respected by comrades, Lenin did not invariably have their support, and Shatrov broke ground by examining the conflicts within the Bolshevik leadership and how they were resolved. The five plays collected in this book are dramas of ideas that reveal the present as well as the past. Size is 8 x 5'', Hard cover, 399 pages. The book is in excellent vintage condition. Very interesting and informative. You buy what you see on the pictures. Pictures are the part of description. Ship from Texas in 2 business days.                   |
