The Kreutzer Sonata, and Other Stories

The Kreutzer Sonata, and Other Stories

Leo Tolstoi
0/5 ( ratings)
One of the world's greatest novelists, Leo Tolstoy also wrote numerous excellent short stories, three of which are contained in this volume. "The Kreutzer Sonata" is a penetrating study of jealousy as well as a splenetic complaint about the way in which society educates young men and women in matters of sex. In "The Death of Ivan Ilych" , a symbolic Everyman discovers the inner light of faith and love only when confronted by death. "How Much Land Does a Man Need?" is a simple, didactic story of peasant life, written by Tolstoy in the wake of a spiritual crisis. All three tales offer readers a splendid introduction to Tolstoy's work as well as the focused delights of the short story form brought to a pinnacle in the hands of a master.
