justjadey 's review for:
Doctor Zhivago
by Boris Pasternak
I'll admit I saw the Sam Neill TV show first (my bad) But I'd never heard of this! I'm very glad I've read it though and can add it to my repertoire of Russian literature. It is a long read covering years and years so like most Russian literature it needs to be read slowly and with a steaming brew. All the names on names on names and all the relationships can be headache, but once you get your head around all that it's a good read!
Dr Zhivago is such a sensitive soul and his experiences of love and loneliness amidst the revolution are quite deep. I think if you get lost, try the movie and then go back to the book - everything will become clear.
