But this sensational aspect should not obscure the fact that Doctor Zhivago is above all a stupendously rich and moving book. Like War and Peace, it evokes an historically crucial period in terms of a large variety of characters whose destinies are interwoven—railwaymen, farmers, intellectuals, merchants, lawyers, professors, students, soldiers, the well-to-do and the destitute.  \nZhivago, a physician and poet, is the central figure. Through his experiences the reader witnesses the outbreak and the consequences of the Revolution: army revolts, irrational killings, starvation, epidemics, Party inquisition. In an epic train ride from Moscow to the Ural Mountains—a journey that takes weeks—Zhivago transports his family to what he hopes is shelter in obscurity. Actually, he lands them all in the chaos and cruelty of strife between Whites and Reds. These are not times for a domestic idyll or emotional bliss, and Zhivago sees man’s simplest aspirations to a normal human life hopelessly frustrated.  \nPasternak’s superbly evocative style is equal to the grandeur of his theme.“Storm” is the recurring key word of his book—the storm of war, of revolution, of human passions, of nature. With awe and terror he recreates modern history’s most titanic effort to bring forth a new world from a deliberately created chaos.  \nThe book is crowded with scenes and people of unforgettable impact: the eeriness of partisan camps in the ice and snow of Siberia’s primeval forests; the trains crowded with deportees; apartment houses overrun by rats; cities starving and freezing; villages burned and depopulated. And woven into this background is the story of Zhivago’s love for tender and beautiful Lara, constantly pursued, found, and lost again, the human symbol of life’s sweetness and joy.  \nTHIS IS A 1962 REPRINT OF THE HARDCOVER EDITION  \nPUBLISHED BY PANTHEON BOOKS, INC.  \nAbout The Author  \nBORIS PASTERNAK belonged to a generation that gave Russia its twentieth-century poets—Blok, Esenin, and Mayakovsky. He was born in Moscow in 1890, the eldest son of Leonid Pasternak, the painter, and Rosa Kaufman Pasternak, the musician. Early in life he became interested in music and the study of composition, but later abandoned music for philosophy and went to study with Professor Cohen in Marburg, Germany. During the First World War he returned to Russia and worked in a factory in the Ural Mountains; after the Revolution he was employed in the library of the Commissariat for Education. He joined avant-garde poetry groups, experimenting in new techniques of rhythm and composition. His poems, most of which appeared between 1917 and 1932, gave him an eminent and unique position in the world of letters. In 1932, an autobiographical poem, Spectorsky, gave rise to violent accusations of “anti-sociability.” From 1933 on, Pasternak lived a retired life, devoting himself mainly to translations of foreign poets. He also translated a number of Shakespeare’s plays; his versions are considered the most outstanding and popular in the Russian language.  \nDoctor Zhivago was the first Original work published by Pasternak after twenty-five years of silence. It was announced for publication in Russia in 1954 but subsequently withdrawn. In the meantime an Italian edition was already on press and it could not be withheld from publication. Thus it happened that one of the most important works of contemporary Russian literature appeared first in translation. Doctor Zhivago has still not appeared in Russia, but has been published in Arabic, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian (University of Michigan Press), Spanish, and Swedish.  \nIn October of 1958, one month after the American publication of this novel, Boris Pasternak was awa","cbCaioq1DFIyKwrm","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioq1DFIyKwrm","pdf",2515878,463,"English","# Overview\n## Characters and central figures\n## Revolution and its consequences\n## The recurring motif of “storm”\n## Love story woven into historical turmoil\n## Author background","[{\"question\":\"Who is the central figure in Doctor Zhivago?\",\"answer\":\"Yurii Andreievich Zhivago, a physician and poet, is the central figure.
