Synopsis
Doctor Zhivago is a 20th century novel by Boris Pasternak, first published in 1957. The novel is named after its protagonist, Yuri Zhivago, a medical doctor and poet. It tells the story of a man torn between two women, set primarily against the backdrop of the Russian Revolution of 1917 and the subsequent Russian Civil War of 1918–1920. More deeply, the novel discusses the plight of a man as the life that he has always known is dramatically torn apart by forces beyond his control.
Reviews
One of the greatest love stories of all time set against the backdrop of the Russian revolution. I'd say see the David Lean film first - and then watch it expand as your read the book with the music and magical photography already in your mind. This is one of the 'must read' books of the 20th Century.
