Russian-German diplomacy and the lives of exiles in polar Pinega
"The Battle of the Iron Chancellors" is a novel that has become a classic of historical prose. This is a work that tells about the difficult Russian-German relations during the most difficult European political crisis of the 1850s—1870s.
The plot centers on Prince Alexander Mikhailovich Gorchakov and Otto von Bismarck, who were chancellors from different sides. Gorchakov, according to Pikul, is "the last lyceum student of the Pushkin pleiad and the last chancellor of the great empire." Bismarck, who completed the unification of Germany, was never a friend of our country, but as a sensible politician he warned the Germans "that any attempt to conquer Russia would end in their grave."
"Stars over the Swamp" is a short novel by Valentin Pikul, with a volume of 6 author's sheets. The book is based on letters from exiled Karakozov residents who were sent into political exile at the dawn of popular will. This is a unique phenomenon that allows the reader to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of that time and learn more about the life of the northern province.
The novel tells how in the wild polar wilderness, in the town of Pinega, on the border with the tundra, glimpses of new relationships between people suddenly flare up. This work is not only a fascinating read, but also an opportunity to learn more about the life of exiles in the late 60s of the last century.
