In the Woods. In 2 Volumes
14.99 €
Alluring forest vistas, concealing schismatic monasteries with their hidden lives within their depths. The free-flowing Volga… True, primordial, Old Testament Rus', wild in its joy, unrestrained in its sins, fervent in its repentance. Everything finds its place here—drunkenness, frivolity, and fanaticism. But true love, genuine faith, and the beauty of the human soul shine all the more brightly with a vibrant, pure glow.
Beautiful vernacular, immersion in folklore, a detailed description of the everyday life of the Old Believers. The tale of Kitezh is woven into the narrative, depicting both the life of the monastery and the stories of several families.
And, of course, a tragic love story, which only emphasizes that the patriarchal way of life often becomes the cause of tragedies even in beloved children, and the desire to get rich and find gold never leads to good.
