Walk in the Light & Twenty-Three Tales - Paperback

by Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy 1828-1910 (Author), Louise Shanks Maude , Aylmer Maude

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.
