The epic "And Quiet Flows the Don" (Nobel Prize 1963) is the most remarkable work of global anti-war literature.

The author sees the events through the eyes of the worker, who faces new trials added to his difficult fate. Sholokhov is the favorite author of the youth who struggle at the forefront for world peace.

He demonstrated in a simple and vivid way what the true proletarian revolution is, what efforts were needed for its success in the USSR, how much blood was shed, and how, ultimately, the most democratic power - the Soviet power - was established for the first time in the world in one-sixth of the Earth's sphere.

The novel "And Quiet Flows the Don" is the work that helps one understand what socialism essentially is and what socialist realism in literature is.
