A striking Soviet edition of Henri Barbusse's iconic World War I novel Under Fire, notable for its powerful anti-war narrative. Published in 1935 by Academia, this volume includes a preface by Maxim Gorky and is distinguished by its complete artistic design by Alexander Deineka, one of the most important Soviet painters and graphic artists. Deineka's dynamic illustrations and cover design masterfully complement the novel's grim and heroic themes. The substantial print run and partial preservation of the original dust jacket make this a particularly notable example of 1930s Soviet book art and political publishing.
