About the Book
Translation of: Leiiubov pchel trudovykh.Book Synopsis
A rare, graphic portrait of Russian life in 1917 immediately after the October Revolution. The heroine struggles with her passion for her husband, and the demands of the new world in which she lives.Review Quotes
"Kollonatai never minimizes the pressures and fears of change. It is not surprising that her books were outlawed during Stalin's time and are still not in print in the Soviet Union. Nor is it surprising that the stories still ring true today."
