| Description: |
''The Naked Year'' follows the provincial town of Ordinin through 1919, a year of war, illness, and tumultuous change. The village and its inhabitants - merchants, nobles, peasants, and communists alike - experience first-hand the impact of the violent revolutionary struggle of the Reds, Whites, Blacks, and Greens, until heir world eventually dissolves into chaos. So lyrical and surreal that it has been called the ''anti-novel'', this book captures the emotional heart of a land trapped in the horrific gap year between frenzied Revolution and rigid Soviet control. |
