This collection includes some of Leo Tolstoy’s extraordinary short stories, from “The Death of Ivan Ilyich” in a masterly new translation, to “The Raid,” “The Wood-felling,” “Three Deaths,” “Polikushka,” “After the Ball,” and “The Forged Coupon,” all gripping and eloquent lessons on two of Tolstoy’s most persistent themes: life and death. More experimental than his novels, Tolstoy’s stories are essential reading for anyone interested in his development as one of the major writers and thinkers of his time.

Leo Tolstoy

Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910) was a Russian novelist and philosopher, widely regarded as one of the greatest authors in world literature. His epic novel ‘War and Peace’ (1869) is a sweeping narrative set against the backdrop of Napoleon's invasion of Russia. The book explores themes of war, peace, and human experience through the lives of aristocratic families. Tolstoy’s profound insights into society, morality, and the complexities of life make *War and Peace* a timeless literary masterpiece.
