Book Description
August 1919 - February 1920. The Red Army is making its final triumphant surge across the tortured remains of the old Russian Empire. For the defiantly apolitical artists and aesthetes at the heart of Devil's Midnight, it is a time of disruption and apocalypse, their lives pulled between narrow escapes, desperate intimacy and horrific violence. 'The story of the Russian Revolution has been told many times but perhaps never before from Kapralov's phantasmagorical vantage point. Startling and eloquent.' - Library Journal
