Fülszöveg

'I was about to leave school for Oxford when Mr Gerhardie's first novel Futility was published. And it has left an indelible impression...

We were proud of his early and immediate success, like men who have spotted the right horse' Graham Greene In Futility Andrei Andreiech recounts his involvement with the Bursanov family and his love for Nina, the second of the three beautiful sisters. The Russian Revolution is in progress and Nina's father has lost his fortune; he waits to see if something will turn up.
