Ponoć u Petrogradu

Ponoć u Petrogradu

Vanora Bennett

A historical novel set in Russia in 1911, it follows Inna Feldman, a young Jewish violinist fleeing the pogroms in Kiev. A moving blend of romance, historical drama, and political thriller, with an emphasis on the power of art in the midst of war.

Tsarist Russia 1911. Young Inna Feldman flees Kiev with a stolen passport from the violent persecution of Jews and comes to St. Petersburg seeking salvation from her distant cousin Yasha, who works in the Leman family's violin workshop. Inna immediately shows her talents and the cheerful Leman family quickly accepts her and she becomes their apprentice. Soon, passionate feelings arise between her and Yasha, but the temperamental Yasha increasingly turns to new, revolutionary ideas and the overthrow of aristocratic society. At the same time, Inna is courted by the Englishman Horace, who works for the famous jeweler Fabergé, and in him Inna finds the security and loyalty she needs in the ever-increasing threat of war. And as the Russian Revolution heats up and survival in Petrograd becomes increasingly difficult, Inna must choose between two men, the future and the past, reason and heart?
