A novel about Dmitri Orshanow, a medical student in turn-of-the-century St Petersburg who is restless and disenchanted with his life. Unable to find fulfilment either in anarchism or in a succession of joyless love affairs, he eventually decides to join the Foreign Legion. This book was first published in France in 1903 and coincides with Annette Kobak's major new biography of Isabelle Eberhardt.
