Ten years, from 1945 to 1955, Boris Pasternak wrote the most important novel in his life. Academician Dmitry Likhachev called the "Dr. Zhivago" "the spiritual autobiography of Pasternak, written by him with maximum frankness." The author gave a lot of mental strength to this work, it was important and dear to him, and it practically destroyed it. Having completed his work, Pasternak wrote in a letter to Varlam Shalamov: "I graduated from a novel, performed a duty, bequeathed from God."
At home, this large -scale, multi -layer novel, aptly and truthfully describing Russian reality from 1903 to 1943, was not only not appreciated, but also subjected to brutal grass. Literary magazines and publishers completely refused to print "Dr. Zhivago", and the first edition of the novel was published in Italy, then he appeared in Holland, Great Britain and the USA. In 1958, Boris Pasternak was awarded the Nobel Prize for significant achievements in modern lyrical poetry, as well as for the continuation of the traditions of the great Russian epic novel. " In the USSR, the author was produced, forced to abandon the prize and expelled from the Writers" Union. Five years after the writer’s novel, the writer was gone.
For the first time, Russian readers were able to get acquainted with the Doctor Zhivago only in 1988, when the novel was printed in the journal New World. The depth, strength and power of this work amaze and make it return to it again and again. And the great and real, sincere love of the author for his country, his homeland causes a sense of great respect
