In this definitive portrait of one of the greatest novelists of all
time, Leo Tolstoy embodies the most extraordinary contradictions.
He was a wealthy aristocrat who preached the virtues of poverty and
the peasant life, a misogynist who wrote Anna Karenina, and a
supreme writer who declared: "Literature is rubbish." Yet his
titanic personality and the astonishing range of his talents and
interests made him, as an author and as a strange self-proclaimed
prophet, one of the undisputed literary giants of the nineteenth
century. From his famously bad marriage to his enormously
successful career, Troyat presents a brilliant portrait that reads
like an epic novel written by Tolstoy himself.
