A Great Love is a Soviet Romance by the arch-feminist Alexandra Kollontai.

About the Author

Alexandra Kollontai was the leading feminist among the old Bolsheviks in Lenin's government. She broke the glass ceiling decades before Thatcher and Meir, and possessed radical feminist ideas that didn't become popular in the West until the 1960s. The resurgence of radicalism in the 1960s and the growth of the feminist movement in the 1970s spurred a new interest in the life and writings of Alexandra Kollontai in Britain and America.
