Seller's Description
Product Information
Siberia
1919. In the outer reaches of a country recently torn apart by civil
war live a small Christian sect and its enigmatic leader, Balashov.
Stationed nearby is a regiment of Czech soldiers, desperate to get home
but on the losing side if the recent conflict. Uncertainty prevails.
Into this isolated community trudges Samarin, an escapee from Russia's
northernmost gulag. Immediately apprehended, he is brought before
Captain Matula, the regiment's megalomaniac commander. But the
stranger's arrival gas also caught the attention of others, including
Anna, a beautiful young war widow. And when the local Shaman lies dead,
suspicion and terror engulf the little town...James Meek's novel is a
breathtaking contemporary fable staged against one if the most remote
landscapes on earth. The remarkable cast of characters and Meek's
uncanny ability to evoke the period bring to mind the work of the great
Russian masters. The People's Act of Love is a magnificent piece of
storytelling, an unforgettable novel and a deeply satisfying read.
