Through the description of the complicated love and difficult and tortuous life experiences of the two sisters Katya and Dasha and their husbands: Roshen, a White Army officer with aristocratic origin, and Telekin, a Red Army officer and engineer with civilian origin, the book depicts the painful journey of Russian intellectuals from the loss of old Russia to the rebirth of Soviet Russia.
