Description

The life of legendary revolutionary fighter and journalist Larisa Reisner (1895-1926) is set against the world-shaking events of 1917, and draws on material recently released from the Soviet archives to tell her story through the memories of those close to her, her own voluminous writings, and her six books, to be published together in translation for the first time by Brill with this biography.
