Few people know about the deep connection that the Nobel brothers once had with Baku. In fact, parts of the prize money were drawn from their petroleum company. By 1920, the Red Army entered Baku and the family secured their economic future by selling to Standard Oil in New Jersey.
Amir Pahlavan’s novel mainly focuses on the Nobels’ fatal decision. In the struggle of dividing the world, land and oil factors played a central role. To date oil brings both: blessing and a curse. The author retains historic facts in memory and tells the story of the main character Ismayil.
