Griffiths' literary style is characterized by a combination of journalistic precision and lyrical descriptions, set against the backdrop of a tumultuous historical period in Russia that saw the fallout of political repression and social unrest. Arthur Griffiths, a journalist and a man of letters deeply engaged with the socio-political issues of his time, was inspired to write this book following his experiences in Eastern Europe.
