17 editions published between 1980 and 2010 in English and held by 759 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
This landmark film is both a vast panorama of Russia convulsed by the Bolshevik Revolution and the intimate drama of one man's struggle to survive. The movie traces the life of surgeon-poet Yury Zhivago before and during the Russian Revolution. Married to an upper-class girl who is devoted to him, yet in love with an unfortunate woman who becomes his muse, Zhivago is torn between fidelity and passion. Sympathetic with the revolution but shaken by the wars and purges, he struggles to retain his individualism as a humanist amid the spirit of collectivism
