Greetings,

I've found whilst looking through my minidiscs, a serial in six parts by
Louis Pasternac. The serial is called Doctor Schivago, but I don't know how
to spell the last name.

I've tried looking on my system but can't find it. Please can anybody
supply me with the correct spelling for the last name?

I'll try duckduckgo.com which is my search engine of choice by putting
Pasternac's name, maybe it will give me the anser.

I also came across another minidisc set containing serial in six parts, A
Dance to the Music of Time, this is much easier, being by Anthony Trollop.

Thanks.


Colin Howard, Southern England.

It's Zhivago. Apparently, the film was released in 1965 and was PG rated.

Hi Colin,

According to the A Lady, it's spelt Zhivago.

Hope that helps.

Paul.

Also, just to add that the word Doctor is written in full before Zhivago.

Colin.

 

As soon as I saw your Dr Zhivago post, I had a strong suspicion your assignment of the author's forename as Louis was incorrect, and my consultation with the A Lady soon confirmed this.

 

So for the record, the author's name is Boris Pasternak, with the last letter being K for Kilo, not C for Charlie.

 

As a post script, Boris Pasternak was born in Russia back in 1890.

 

HTH, CB.
