Book Synopsis Fierce and Gentle Warriors by : Mikhail Aleksandrovich Sholokhov
Book excerpt: Three stories from the Cossack country by the world-famous author of "And Quiet Flows the Don" and 1965 winner of the Nobel Prize for literature. "The Colt" concerns a soldier and his tender feelings towards a horse newly born on the battlefield. "The Rascal" tells of a young boy who becomes a hero by acting as a military messenger. In "The Fate of a Man" an ex-prisoner of war has a moving encounter with a homeless waif. These straight-forward, exciting and unpretentious stories illustrate Sholokhov's desire, as he states it, ' ... to help people become better, nobler; I want to awaken man's love of man, his striving for humanistic ideals, for progress.'.
