With World War I, the Bolshevik Revolution, and the Russian Civil War as backdrop, it's an old-fashioned, blood-and-guts narrative, filled with earthly humor and a wealth of colorful characters. The story concerns the fluctuating fortunes of Grigory Melekhov, a young Cossack who is both a hero and a victim of the uprising. 　　译文(2): 以第一次世界大战、十月革命和俄罗斯内战为背景，这是一个老式的、血腥的叙事，充满了世俗的幽默和丰富多彩的人物。故事讲述了年轻的哥萨克人格里戈里 · 梅列霍夫(Grigory Melekhov)不稳定的命运，他既是起义的英雄，也是起义的受害者。
