How did this unimaginable transformation take place? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In a panoramic sweep, stretching from St. Petersburg and Moscow to the remotest villages of a sprawling empire, Mi騅ille uncovers the catastrophes, intrigues and inspirations of 1917, in all their passion, drama and strangeness.
