The Romantic Exiles

1847: the Russian liberal Alexander Herzen and his family leave Moscow on a short-term permit, become embroiled in the revolutionary upheavals in France and Italy and find themselves condemned to permanent exile. Their lives are punctuated by romance and illusion, intrigue and adultery. This moving account has all the qualities of an epic nineteenth-century novel.
