One rarely comes across a book to which one can with conviction apply the epithet "great", but if greatness in fiction implies the creation of vital, pulsating, lifelike characters in surroundings as vivid as those of our normal life, but much more unforgettable, then one can have no hesitation in applying it to this stupendous novel. On a gigantic canvas the author has depicted the environment and mental reactions of a people encrusted in that mass of corruption, tyranny, and spurious glitter thatwas Czarist Russia...."
