Red Cavalry
(Babel, Isaak)

Publicidade
Isaak Babel. A Great Russian writer who was never appreciated nor during his life neither after he died ? still unknown. The writer who finally gained his well deserved fame in our times, only because his sharp, blunt, often stringent and scourging way of writing can only be understood by readers and critics of today. By those who already made a journey through the whole ruffled history of 20th century.
Babel fought in the Red army during the Russian Revolution and always kept a diary, which was later transformed into a compilation of short stories known to us as ?Red Cavalry?. The book is filled with often terrifying but eye-opening narratives based on Babel?s firsthand war experiences. The narrator, and at the same time the main character is a young boy who fighting side by side with coarse and experienced soldiers, goes through the Revolution as through the cruel and destructive school of life and courage.
Babel is unmerciful, overwhelming with extremely realistic details of death, suffering and destruction brought by the war, stubbing his readers with images that are impossible to forget. He was called ?A Poet of Details?, who out of the insignificant details was able to create a tragedy or a comedy. His work is painfully beautiful and will be forever etched in your mind with the futility and meaninglessness of any war next to the human life.
