A classic of socialist realism, Cement became a model for Soviet fiction in the decades following its publication in the early 1920s.

Recenzii

"Written with push and power, its action develops quickly and effectively, at times with real dramatic swing . . . Gladkov describes the life and customs of the Communist milieu with perfect realism and without idealization." —New York Times

"The result is unnerving, fascinating, and in its unflinching way, magnificent. It is a fierce modern epic, born in troubled times, but it breathes with an immense energy." —Spectator
