Set in the Ukranian capital of Kiev during the chaotic winter of 1918-19, 'The White Guard', Bulgakov's first full-length novel, tells the story of a Russian-speaking family trapped in circumstances that threaten to destroy them. As in Tolstoy's 'War and Peace', the narrative centres on the stark contrast between the cost domesticity of family life on the one hand and wide-ranging and destructive historical events on the other.
