Written over a period spanning fifty years, Tolstoy's enchanting short stories and novellas reflect every facet of his developing art and worldview. Volume 1 of the Everyman Library of Shorter Fiction is dominated by the characteristic experiences of his early life as a soldier, landowner, husband, and father, the life that shaped Anna Karenina and War and Peace. It also includes several short fables that suggest his later careful life with regard to the religious question. Volume 2 reveals how these spiritual insights blossomed into a series of outstanding later masterpieces that equal in intensity and power his earlier novels. Readers of The Death of Ivan Ilyich, The Kreutzer Sonata, Father Sergius, Master and Man, and Hadji Murad will recognize the brilliant young novelist, now transformed by his passionate quest for salvation and forgiveness.
