I have a particular course of study coming up in Russian history from about 1891-1991. The lecturer in the past has referred to works of literature to illustrate points, so Madame Bovary for example to illustrate French provincial life, The Leopard to depict the Italian nobility at unification.
The only thing that has sprung to mind is Doctor Zchivago, which I have read before but could probably re-read.
