{"product_id":"9781782270935","title":"Red Cavalry","description":"\u003cp\u003eBased on Babel's own diaries that he wrote during the Russo-Polish war of 1920, \u003ci\u003eRed Cavalry \u003c\/i\u003eis a lyrical,  unflinching and often startlingly ironic depiction of the violence and horrors of war. A classic of modern fiction, the short stories are as powerful today as they were when they burst onto the Russian literary landscape nearly a century ago. The narrator, a Russian-Jewish intellectual, struggles with the tensions of his dual identity: fact blends with fiction; the coarse language of soldiers combines with an elevated literary style; cultures, religions and different social classes collide. Shocking, moving and innovative, \u003ci\u003eRed Cavalry\u003c\/i\u003e is one of the masterpieces of Russian literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePushkin Collection editions feature a spare, elegant series style and superior, durable components. The Collection is typeset in Monotype Baskerville, litho-printed on Munken Premium White Paper and notch-bound by the independently owned printer TJ International in Padstow.
