Youth. Adolescence

The book «Childhood. Adolescence. Youth» — the first published work of Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy. Through the journey of becoming a specific personality, L.N. Tolstoy depicted the common traits of key moments in every person's life: the thirst for independence, the... joy of moving, the realization that I am finally «grown-up», and much more, as well as a psychologically accurate portrait of a teenager and a young man in search of himself.
The book includes two concluding stories from the autobiographical trilogy of Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy. The young hero matures: new questions arise in his mind that previously did not trouble him, there is a place in his soul for compassion for the suffering of others, and life sometimes contradicts youthful dreams.
