FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) September 2, 2008 -- Two of N. G. Smirnov's best works, Jack Vosmerkin - The American and The Land of the Sun, have recently been translated into English and are now available to the rest of the world. These books offer unique glimpses of Russia's past, both during the Soviet times(Jack Vosmerkin), as well as during the time of the tsars(Land of the Sun). Very briefly summarizing these historical novels, JACK VOSMERKIN - THE AMERICAN is an epic tale about a Russian boy who travels around the globe by accident during the early Soviet years, returning to Russia to combine Russian and Western culture in a remarkable, never predictable life's journey. THE LAND OF THE SUN lets the reader relive a life in exile, starting in Kamchatka, during the age of Imperialism, and then takes its narrator, a Russian

youth, far beyond Russia's borders, where he and his fellow countrymen must adapt to a life they'd never imagined, but never losing their Russian spirit.

Currently, these English language novels (as well as the original Russian versions) are available online at www.geocities.com/maxmakc either as ebooks or in a limited supply of printed copies, until a major publisher is found for mass distribution. Visit the website and be among the first English speakers to read one or both of these reborn classics.
