"The Samovar Girl" by Frederick Ferdinand Moore is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The storyline begins in a harsh Siberian exile settlement known as the Valley of Despair, exploring the life of young Peter Gorekin, whose father is a political exile. As Peter navigates the struggles of life under oppressive conditions, he becomes entwined with Katerin Kirsakoff, the daughter of the Governor, against the backdrop of political turmoil and societal upheaval. At the start of the novel, the reader is introduced to Peter, a ten-year-old boy, as he works with his father, a bootmaker, amidst the bleakness of their frozen surroundings. Peter's life is characterized by poverty and fear of the Cossack soldiers, but it takes a tragic turn when his father is attacked and ultimately killed for a perceived slight against the Governor. Peter is then taken away to prison, leaving behind not only his father but the warmth of home and the glimmer of hope for better days, setting the stage for a complex interplay of nobility, oppression, and the search for safety in a tumultuous period of history.
