Decades after the first publications, the historical novels of the Soviet writer Isai Kalistratovich Kalashnikov (1931–1980), as before, deservedly enjoy the love of readers. A native of a Buryat village, after the church reform of the 18th century, settled by... Old Believers - Semeiskie, Isai Kalashnikov became known throughout the country as the author of the epic novel “The Cruel Age” (1978), which tells the story of the life of Genghis Khan. In his other novel, “Rupture-Grass” (1970), the writer also turns to history, but to a history that is closer and more personal. The story centers on the life of an Old Believer Semey village in the first half of the 20th century. The plot of the novel covers forty years, which can be called an entire era: so many upheavals occurred during this time. Once again, Isai Kalashnikov skillfully captivates the reader in the vicissitudes of the lives of his heroes, proving that in history there are no big or small themes, that the measure of everything is a person and his place in the world.
