Written by Mikhail Sholokhov - Performed by Wolfram Kandinsky - Unabridged Fiction - 6 CASSETTES

Publisher, Books on Tape (November 1979)The Nobel Prize-winner brings to life a cossack village under the czar before the Russian Revolution.

"If one is going to talk about the best Russian novel of the 20th century, it may be necessary to go no further than And Quiet Flows the Don." --Norman Mailer

And Quiet Flows the Don is the immortal portrayal of a Cossack village -- beginning in the days of peace under the Czar, carrying on through war and revolution. Mikhail Sholokhov centers the story around Gregor Melekhov, a young man of the village.

Gregor's life in the home of his father, his unhappy marriage, and his fortunes in the revolution are not only a magnificent narrative in themselves, but also a microcosm of the tumultuous world of the Cossacks.
