Edward Rutherford is an English writer, author of the world bestsellers "London", "Dublin", "Ireland", "New York", "Paris" and others. On the pages of the novel "Russian", a novel about Russia, unfolds a story of almost two thousand years, where intertwined and interact real historical figures and fictional characters fictionalized by the author. Having studied a huge amount of literature, he outlines significant milestones with broad strokes, capturing the most dramatic events of history and the place of man in them. Russian literature serves Rutherford as a guide through the centuries, provides a model for the characters and their relationships. Rutherford's view is, of course, the view of a foreigner, another "traveler to Russia": looking, studying, wanting to establish cause and effect, sincerely trying to understand. This novel, conceived and realized in a crucial period of Russian history and depicting the country as the writer saw it in the late 1980s, has also become a part of history nowadays. It contains an important theme for the author: no matter how many difficult trials the country and its inhabitants have gone through, it is like a phoenix reborn again.
