Mikhail Sholokhov's epic novel The Quiet Don is one of the most significant and large-scale works in Russian literature, which brought the author the Nobel Prize and world fame; the novel was repeatedly screened and translated into many languages. The first three volumes were published in 1928-1932, when the young author was not even thirty years old, the fourth volume - in 1940. The action of "Quiet Don" unfolds against the backdrop of watershed events in the history of Russia - World War I and the Civil War, which changed not only the ancient way of life of the Don Cossacks, but also the image of the entire country. The novel fully expresses one of the main themes of Sholokhov's work - war as a fratricidal slaughter, repugnant to human nature. "The main character of his works - wrote about Sholokhov Finnish writer Martti Larni - the truth itself ... Life he sees and perceives as a realistic drama, in which the main role is given to humanity. This is one of the explanations of his world fame".
