Description

Thought-provoking and profound stories from one of the greatest Russian authors

This collection includes some of Leo Tolstoy's extraordinary short stories, from "The Death of Ivan Ilyich" in a masterly new translation, to "The Raid," "The Wood-felling," "Three Deaths," "Polikushka," "After the Ball," and "The Forged Coupon," all gripping and eloquent lessons on two of Tolstoy's most persistent themes: life and death. More experimental than his novels, Tolstoy's stories are essential reading for anyone interested in his development as one of the major writers and thinkers of his time.

soo gorgeously written. hoping to be bold enough to pick up war and peace one day but we’ll see in how many years that actually happens. i’ve never been afraid of death so even though i do fear not doing anything meaningful with my life it didn’t really resonate with me that much.
