Summary:
"Resurrection" (1899) is the last of Tolstoy's major novels. It tells
the story of a nobleman's attempt to redeem the suffering his
youthful philandering inflicted on a peasant girl who ends up a
prisoner in Siberia. Tolstoy's vision of redemption achieved through
loving forgiveness, and his condemnation of violence, dominate the
novel. An intimate, psychological tale of guilt, anger, and
forgiveness, "Resurrection" is at the same time a panoramic
description of social life in Russia at the end of the 19th century,
reflecting its author's outrage at the social injustices of the world
in which he lived. This edition, which updates a classic translation,
has explanatory notes and a substantial introduction based on the
most recent scholarship in the field.
