Of Old Hearts and Swords (Georgian Literature)

Více o knize

An epic story in fifty-four short, refined chapters, this is the tale of an abduction and a pursuit across nineteenth-century Georgia at the time of its annexation by the Russian Empire. Evoking the delicate atmosphere of a culture all but lost to time, this is a novel of chivalry and gross misunderstanding, of love and war, as Georgian nobleman Baduna Pavneli--alleged to have killed a Russian officer--travels from Tiflis to the West searching for his missing brother, with the police forever at his heels.
