Biography
He is an unscrupulous businessman who played both sides of the Russian Revolution by having friends in the Russian Communist Party and the faction battling said communists for control of Russia. He is implied to be a constant womanizer as he suduces the mother of army nurse Lara Antipova and later on eyes up Lara herself despite the fact that Lara is engaged to Pasha Antipov, a young revolutionist. She is then seduced by Komarovsky and continues to see him in secret.
When Lara decided to end the relationship once and for all, Komarovsky rapes her and in retaliation Lara tracks him down to a Christmas Eve party and attempts to shoot him with a revolver Pasha gave her, but she only wounds his arm before se is escourted out of the building by Pasha as Yuri Zhivago, an aspiring poet turned doctor tends to his wound.
After Yuri's family is deported to Paris and Pasha, under the name Strelinkov, is fighting in the Russian Revolution, Lara and Yuri rekindle their on-off relationship (which started as they worked together on the frontlines of WW1). During which Komarovsky informs them that they are being watched by the Cheka (All Russian Extrodinary Commission) due to Lara's connection to Strelinkov via marriage and Yuri's counter revolutionary poetry and desertion from communist partisans. He offers the couple help in leaving Russia but Lara and Yuri decline, instead choosing to an abandoned Varykino estate.
Some time later Komarovsky reappears telling Yuri that Strelinkov was captured by the Cheka while returning to Lara and comitted suicide en route to execution, implying that Lara is in danger herself due to the Cheka only sparing her to draw Strelinkov out of hiding. Against his will, Yuri sends Lara away with Komarovsky who had since been appointed a goverment official in the nominally independant Far Eastern Republic, while Yuri himself accepts his fate as he refuses to accompany a man he dislikes.
