Olga Litvak has written a book of astonishing originality and intellectual force. . . . In vivid prose, she takes the reader on a journey through the RussianJewish literary imagination.' Benjamin NathansRussian Jews were first conscripted into the Imperial Russian army during the reign of Nicholas I in an effort to integrate them into the population of the Russian Empire. Conscripted minors were to serve, in practical terms, for life. Although this system was abandoned by his successor, the conscription experience remained traumatic in the popular memory and gave rise to a large and continuing literature that often depicted Jewish soldiers as heroes. This imaginative and intellectually ambitious book traces the conscription theme in novels and stories by some of the bestknown Russian Jewish writers such as Osip Rabinovich, JudahLeib Gordon, and Mendele Mokher Seforim, as well as by relatively unknown writers.Published with the generous support of the Koret Foundation.
