“Dr. Zhivago” was written by Russian author Boris Pasternak. The Soviet government did not approve of the novel, and so the manuscript had to be smuggled out of the country to be published. The work received international acclaim and Pasternak was awarded the 1958 Nobel Prize for literature, which he was forced to turn down.
