Let’s make a brief introduction to the book first, and those who have not read it and are interested can read it.
Paul grew up in bitter waters and died at an early age Father and mother do laundry and cook for others, and my brother is a worker. When Paul was 12 years old, his mother sent him to the station cafeteria as a handyman, where he worked for two years and was abused.
After the outbreak of the October Revolution, Paul’s hometown of Sebetovka in Ukraine, like the rest of the Soviet Union, was trampled by foreign armed interventionists and domestic reactionaries. The Red Army liberated the town of Shebetovka, but it was quickly withdrawn, leaving only the old Bolshevik Zhukhlai doing underground work in the town. Zhukhrai stayed at Paul’s house for a few days and told Paul many things about the revolution, the working class and class struggle: “Now the whole world is on fire, the slaves are uprising, they want to overthrow the old world, but For this, what is needed is a group of brave brothers who can fight resolutely.” Zhukhlai’s inspiration and education played a decisive role in Paul’s intellectual growth.
Suddenly, Zhukhrai was captured by the bandits. Paul was eager to ask around. One day, when the bandits were escorting Zhukhrai, Paul unexpectedly swooped over, beat the bandits into a ditch, and fled with Zhukhrai. But because of the whistleblower Viktor, the son of the Polish nobleman Liszensky, Paul was thrown into prison. After getting out of prison, Paul ran desperately. He was afraid of falling into the clutches again and didn’t dare to go home, so he unconsciously came to the front of Tonya’s garden. He jumped and entered the garden. Tonya likes Paul’s “passionate and stubborn” character, and Paul also feels that Tonya is “different from other rich girls”. Later, they met several times and slowly fell in love. In order to take refuge, Paul agreed to Tonya’s request and stayed. A few days later, Tonia found Paul’s brother Arqin, who sent him to Khachaddin to join the Red Army.
During a fierce battle, Paul was seriously injured in the head. But he triumphed over death with astonishing tenacity. After being discharged from the hospital, it was no longer suitable for him to return to the front lines, and he took part in the work of restoring and building the country. Here he is also a working-class master, nervously engaged in all kinds of hard work. He did the work of the regiment, the “German and French Yearbook” for the work year of the eradication of counter-revolutionaries. Incorporated into Volume 1 of the Complete Works of Marx and Engels. articles, and directly participate in hard physical labor. In the construction of the narrow gauge railway, Paul showed a high degree of political enthusiasm and selfless spirit of labor.
Paul has only seen her twice since he said goodbye to Tonya at her house. The first time was after he was discharged from the hospital, and the last time was at the railway construction site. Paul found that with the deepening of the revolution, the ideological gap between them became wider and wider, and they had no common language at all. parted ways.
Near the end of the road construction, Paul caught typhoid fever. After recovering, he returned to work. He took part in industrial construction and frontier battles, and joined the party. However, due to Paul’s many serious and secret wounds in the war, and several serious illnesses later, plus he forgot his work and labor, and did not take care of his body at ordinary times, his physique was getting worse and worse. In 1927, he was almost completely paralyzed, and then went blind. A serious illness finally bound this young man full of revolutionary enthusiasm to the sickbed. But Paul rediscovered the strength to “return to the team” while enduring unimaginable pain, both physically and mentally. He set himself two tasks: on the one hand, he was determined to help his wife Daya progress; on the other hand, he decided to start literary creation. In this way, “Paul took up a new weapon and started a new life.”
