Cape of Storms, one of the great Russian writer's most fascinating novels, was published serially in 1951 in the Novyi Zhurnal -- and Nina Berberova herself, late in life, took the old emigre journals off a shelf and handed them to distinguished translator Marian Schwartz. Now this forgotten, riveting late masterpiece is available in English for the first time. Centering on three half-sisters, Cape of Storms treats a very specific generation, born in Russia but raised in Paris: a lost generation, having suffered childhood traumas, and now neither really Russian nor truly French. The three sisters -- Dasha, Sonia, and Zai -- share the same father, Tiagin (portrayed by Berberova as an attractive, weak-willed womanizing White Russian). As the specter of war looms, and the sisters enter adulthood, each chooses a different path: Dasha marries and leaves for a bourgeois, expatriate life in colonial Africa; Sonia studies philosophy, becomes obsessed with radical politics, and ends a suicide; Zai, the youngest, an appealing adolescent, flirts with becoming an actress or a poet. It is a shattering book, which opens with an absolutely hair-raising scene of Dasha witnessing her mother's murder at the hands of Bolshevik thugs, and ends as the blitzkrieg sweeps towards Paris. Cape of Storms is unparalleled in Berberova's work for its high drama, its starkness, and many shifts of mood and viewpoint.Binding Type: Paperback

Good cart.
Size: 5 Tiers (8.7"D x 39.2"H), Color: Rustic Brown + Classic Black
Very good cart. Could use better wheels, but all in all nice looking cart. Wish it came with a-hooks so you could hang pot holders or something of the like on the end b horizontal bars, but it does NOT.

Nice Versatile and Strong Cart
Material Type: Three Tiers Cart
The cart looks great and fits our needs perfectly. It is very sturdy and well made. However, it took a lot longer to put together than I expected because there many parts and they have to fit together perfectly. Worth it though!

Not for someone that needs step by step instructions and pre-drilled holes
Nice cart that looks good once assembled. But be warned: there are NO predrilled holes for any of the screws. You will need to build each section of the frame that attaches to each wood panel FIRST, sit it on the wood and use a electric drill or driver to put the screws into the wood.
Same goes for the wheel attachments - no holes drilled for these either.
So if you are someone that can't even build a piece of IKEA furniture - this is NOT for you as this will require more skill and power tools.

Great Cart, Difficult Assembly
Material Type: Three Tiers Cart
This cart is beautiful and met our expectations. We read many reviews good and bad, so we knew what we were buying. The cart was packaged and delivered perfectly. It is very heavy so help may be needed. It took 4 hours to put together, there were no predrilled holes and some of the metal poles need to be adjusted slightly to fit correctly. The instructions were straightforward, drilling holes prior is very helpful. The wood was a darker brown and I actually liked the imperfections of the knots giving it character. Overall, I would buy this cart again. It is very pretty and will look amazing in our camp.
