For more than a hundred years, the novel “The Gadfly” has excited many generations of readers, but it was received differently. Puritan England treated him with restraint. In America, it caused a storm of indignation with its anti-religious character, in Russia it was enthusiastically welcomed, in the USSR it was published in millions of copies and was included in the school curriculum. It is no coincidence that the title of the novel refers to Socrates, who accepted death for his beliefs. The main character Gadfly, like the Greek sage, remains faithful to the ideas that inspired him from his youth. The Gadfly is an international type of revolutionary. In different eras and different societies, the novel was perceived ambiguously. Today he can find his fans again.
