The 20th-Century Russian Novel: Revolution, Terror, Resistance

Wings 5-11


pg. 5 — dachas (small country houses or villas)
Dachas refer to small country houses or cottages in Russia. They were sometimes used as second homes, but mostly reserved for summer retreats for the wealthy. The Russian government would gift dachas to prominent or accomplished individuals as a form of recognition, so Dachas are a symbol of societal status.
