The Kreutzer Sonata

World-renowned and national classic, Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy was already called the head of Russian literature during his lifetime and was nominated for the Nobel Prize four times. Great writers - what are they like? It turns out they are very... much like us. Leo Nikolayevich, for example, suffered from depression, which is considered a modern ailment, and was treated with kumys in a yurt near Samara… He also pondered complex questions. To listen to one's heart - or reason? To follow society's dictates - or pursue one's own dream? How to fight against one's vices: ambition, selfishness, and carnal passion? Such are his heroes. Loving and unloved. Loyal and betraying. Searching and having lost everything. Starting their journey and already having crossed that line when it was impossible to either forgive or ask for forgiveness. The book includes novellas and stories such as The Kreutzer Sonata, The Devil, Father Sergius, etc., the play The Living Corpse, and The Confession of Leo Tolstoy.
