Garden of Gethsemane. Tiger catchers

This edition contains the two most famous works of Ivan Bagryany - " Garden of Gethsemane " and " Tiger catchers " . The author used partly autobiographical material, in his works he unrepentantly highlights the entire criminal, cynical and inhumane essence of the communist-Stalinist regime and totalitarianism in general. The main characters of the works, despite all the mockery, humiliation and bloody torture of the NKVD servants, do not give up, resist the regime and remain human. Both novels are very relevant even today, as they allow us to better understand the motives and intentions of the Russian occupiers, who are followers of Stalin's punishers. Despite the different plots and characters, the themes in both works are common.
