Full description for The Golovlyov Family

  • Searingly hot in the summer, bitterly cold in the winter, the ancestral estate of the Golovlyov family is the end of the road.

One of the great books of Russian literature, " The Golovlyov Family" is a vivid picture of a condemned and isolated outpost of civilization that, for contemporary readers, will recall the otherwordly reality of Macondo in Gabriel Garcia Marquez's "One Hundred Years of Solitude."
