Humanity and Love triumph over Tyranny

During the first three chapters I considered putting it down as it seemed like nothing other than a feeble romance but soon I was proved wrong; I enjoyed the book after the third or so chapter .It is a beauitful account of how love and real humanity overcome cruel totalitarian tyranny .I found it interesting following the lives of Sasha Volynin and the love of his life Anna ,their romance and the lives of their families-people such as the cruel party apparatchik Ivan Volynin and the tragic Katya,the brave and noble Pyotr and the zealous and robust guardian of the old Russia ,Nicolai. Later we read of the younger generation:Dmitri,Sonya,Natasha,Viktor,Vitya and Andrushka and we get a good idea of life under one of the most brutal regimes in history.
