This publication was not intended for distribution through bookstores or libraries. The first translation of the novel into Russian.
E. Hemingway was in good graces of Russian authorities till this novel appeared in 1940. One reason was some prototypes of heroes were executed in Russia, another reason is Spanish comminists' leader Dolores Ibárruri. She never loved this novel and she lived in Moscow at that time.
The first translation of the novel into Russian was made in 1941 but it was banned. Hemingway asked his Russian friend poet Konstantin Simonov if he could make some changes in the novel or cut some names in purpose to publish it in Russian. Later Simonov edited the translation of the first official Russian edition of the novel and wrote the foreword.
It was published only in 1968 with some censorship cuts. From that time Russian readers had samizdat copies which were always confiscated by authorities.
Our edition is full, without any cuts.
