The White Guard: New Translation
Set in the Ukrainian capital of Kiev during the chaotic winter of 191819, The White Guard, Bulgakovs first full-length novel, tells the story of a Russian-speaking family trapped in circumstances that threaten to destroy them. As in Tolstoys War and Peace, the narrative centres on the stark contrast between the cosy domesticity of family life on the one hand, and wide-ranging and destructive historical events on the other. The result is a disturbing, often shocking story, illuminated, however, by shafts of light that testify to peoples resilience, humanity and ability to love in even the most adverse circumstances.
