A brilliant short novel based on Tolstoy's early life as a soldier
in the Caucusus, THE COSSACKS has all the energy and poetry of
youth while at the same time foreshadowing the great themes of
Tolstoy's later years. A young officer finds himself living among
tribesmen on the borders of southern Russia. In depicting his
experience, Tolstoy explores the birth and death of love, the
transience of life, the love of honour and the pain of war, all
portrayed amidst the wild and magnificent landscape of the
mountains and described in exquisite detail.
