Solzhenitsyn, Alexander : August 1914

Címlaphiány!Translated by Michael Glenny.
Historical novel by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, published as Avgust chetyrnadtsatogo in Paris in 1971. An enlarged version, nearly double in size, was published in 1983. The novel treats Germany's crushing victory over Russia in their initial military engagement of World War I, the Battle of Tannenberg. The action takes place in the course of three days. The book's combination of epic sweep and brief time-span necessitated broad, efficient characterization, an effect that Solzhenitsyn attempts to achieve by means of frequent literary allusions and often biting irony.
