Leo Tolstoy combined detailed physical description with perceptive
psychological insight to sweep aside the sham of surface
appearances and lay bare man's intimate gestures, acts, and
thoughts. Murder and sacrifice...greed and devotion...lust and
affection...vanity and love--one by one, in this volume of great
stories, Tolstoy dissects the basic drives, emotions, and motives
of ordinary people searching for self-knowledge and spiritual
perfection. Chekhov said, "Of authors my favorite is Tolstoy." And
Turgenev "marveled at the strength of his huge talent...It sends a
cold shudder even down my back...He is a master, a master."
Now with a new introduction by Regina Marler and an afterword by
Hugh McLean.
