"The White Guard" is Bulgakov's first major work and the only novel that was published during the author's lifetime. It was first published in the journal "Russia" in 1925, and the complete novel was published in France in 1927-1929. It tells the story of the Civil War of 1918, the collapse of established norms and traditions, as witnessed and experienced by the author. At the same time, it is a fascinating, largely autobiographical family saga. Almost all characters have prototypes - relatives, friends, acquaintances of the Bulgakov family. The Turbins are a lost generation. The old homeland is no more... Moral compasses have been shaken, but held firm. And now, in the madness of the times, the characters try at all costs to preserve even a small part of what they believed in, what they cherished... The work has been adapted multiple times: the film "The Run" (1970) by Alexander Alov and Vladimir Naumov, based on Bulgakov's works, "The Days of the Turbins" (1976) by Vladimir Basov, and the multi-part film "The White Guard" (2012) by Sergey Snezhkin.
