Walk in the Light & Twenty-Three Tales Leo Tolstoy,
Publisher: Orbis Books
ISBN: 1570754608
Edition: Paperback; 2003-11-01
Summary:
Uncluttered by the complexities of plot and character that daunt so
many readers of the longer Russian masterpieces, Tolstoy's tales
illumine eternal truths with the forceful brevity. While inspired by
the sense of spiritual certainty, their narrative quality, subtle
humor, and visionary power lift them far above the common run of
"religious" literature. Moralists purport to tell us what our lives
should mean, and how we should live them. Tolstoy, on the other hand,
has an uncanny gift for simply conveying what it means to be truly
alive.
