[WIKIPEDIA]"Darkness at Noon is a novel by Hungarian-born novelist Arthur Koestler, first published in 1940. His best known work, it is the tale of Rubashov, an Old Bolshevik who is arrested, imprisoned, and tried for treason against the government that he helped to create. The novel is set between 1938 and 1940, after the Stalinist Great Purge and Moscow show trials. Despite being based on real events, the novel does not name either Russia or the Soviets, and tends to use generic terms to describe people and organizations[.](...) The novel expresses the author's disillusionment with the Bolshevik ideology of the Soviet Union at the outset of World War II. (...) The novel was adapted as a stage play by Sidney Kingsley circa 1950, which was made into a 1955 television production on the American television series Producer’s Showcase." #booksforsale #Theatre #collectiblebooks #Bookworm #Antiquarian #bibliophile #CoverArt #Play #Rare #SamuelFrench #booksale #CuttleboneBooks #Stalinism #Vintage #SidneyKingsley #Books #ArthurKoestler #DarknessAtNoon #readersofinstagram #Drama #MoscowShowTrials #bookcollecting #Scarce #instabooks #BooksBooksBooks #Bookstagram #instaread
