1910. Anna Karenina and War and Peace have made Leo Tolstoy the world's most famous author. But fame comes at a price. In the tumultuous final year of his life, Tolstoy is desperate to find respite, so leaves his large family and the hounding press behind and heads into the wilderness. Too ill to venture beyond the tiny station of Astapovo, he believes his last days will pass in isolation. But as we learn through the journals of those closest to him, the battle for Tolstoy's soul will not be a peaceful one. Jay Parini introduces, translates and edits this collection of Tolstoy's autobiographical writing, diaries, and letters related to the last year of Tolstoy's life published to coincide with the 2009 film of Parini's novel The Last Station: A Novel of Tolstoy's Final Year.

In the years before he wrote War and Peace, Leo Tolstoy founded and ran a school on his estate at Yasanya Polyana. Brimming with progressive and sometimes radical ideas on schooling, Tolstoy undertook to teach the peasant children many subjects-including imaginative writing-and wrote about what he learned. This is a book for anyone who cares about education.

Leo Tolstoy, a renowned Russian writer and philosopher, created a diverse collection of literary works that encompassed a wide range of themes and genres. Some of his notable contributions include "Fables for Children," "Stories for Children," "Natural Science Stories," "Popular Education," "Decembrists," and "Moral Tales." Each of these works reflects Tolstoy's commitment to exploring moral, ethical, and social concepts through engaging storytelling. "Fables for Children": Leo Tolstoy's "Fables for Children" is a collection of short narratives that convey moral lessons through the interactions of anthropomorphic animals. Drawing inspiration from Aesop's fables, Tolstoy's fables explore virtues, vices, and human behavior, making them accessible and instructive for young readers. "Stories for Children": Tolstoy's "Stories for Children" offers a variety of engaging tales tailored to young audiences. These stories often feature relatable characters and situations, addressing themes of kindness, empathy, and personal growth. Through imaginative narratives, Tolstoy encourages children to contemplate essential life values. "Natural Science Stories": In "Natural Science Stories," Tolstoy blends storytelling with scientific exploration. Through these narratives, he introduces young readers to the wonders of the natural world, fostering a sense of curiosity and appreciation for the environment. "Popular Education": Tolstoy's commitment to education is evident in his work on "Popular Education." By simplifying complex subjects and presenting them in an accessible manner, he aimed to empower individuals, including children, with knowledge and critical thinking skills. "Decembrists": Tolstoy's exploration of the "Decembrist" movement delves into historical events and societal shifts. The Decembrists were a group of Russian intellectuals and military officers who sought political reforms in the early 19th century. Tolstoy's writings shed light on their ideals and struggles. "Moral Tales": Tolstoy's "Moral Tales" exemplify his dedication to ethical contemplation and spiritual growth. Through stories that often feature ordinary individuals facing moral dilemmas, he prompts readers to consider the choices they make and the impact of their actions on themselves and others. Overall, Leo Tolstoy's contributions to literature extend far beyond his renowned novels. His works for children, popular education, and moral exploration showcase his commitment to using storytelling as a means to inspire reflection, encourage ethical behavior, and foster a deeper understanding of the human experience.

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 nineteenth 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. Resurrection is the last full-length novel by Leo Tolstoy. The work has been translated to many European languages and has outsold Anna Karenina and War and Peace. The controversy of the plot is most likely responsible for such huge success: the novel explores the fate of a girl seduced and then abandoned by an officer. A 16-year-old maid Catherine Maislova falls in love with a nobleman Dmitri Nekhlyudov, who has a brief affair with her. This affair results in her being fired and ending up in prostitution. Ten years later they accidentally meet in court: Maislova is condemned for a murder and Nekhlyudov sits on a jury. Resurrection explores Nekhlyudov’s personal moral and mental struggle. Pretty illustrations by Dmitrii Rybalko provide you with new impressions from reading this legendary story.

Ranging in scope from lengthy novellas to fables and folktales only a few pages long, Leo Tolstoy’s short fiction provides a marvelous opportunity to become closely acquainted with Russia’s great novelist. Volume 2 of the Collected Shorter Fiction reveals how Tolstoy’s growing spiritual preoccupations flowered into a series of extraordinary late masterpieces that equal anything in the earlier novels for intensity and power. Readers of The Death of Iván Ilých, The Kreutzer Sonata, Father Sergius, Master and Man, and Hadji Murád will recognize the brilliant novelist now transfigured by his passionate quest for salvation and forgiveness. Aylmer and Louise Maude’s classic translations are supplemented by new translations by Nigel J. Cooper of six stories, including two that have never before appeared in English.

When he arrived in Moscow in 1851, a young Leo Tolstoy set himself three immediate aims: to gamble, to marry, and to obtain a post. At that time he managed only the first. The writer’s momentous life would be full of forced breaks and abrupt departures, from the death of his beloved parents and tortuous courtship to a deep spiritual crisis and an abandonment of the social class into which he had been born. He also made several attempts to break up with literature, but each time he returned to writing. In this original and comprehensive biography, Andrei Zorin skillfully pieces together the life of one of the greatest novelists of all time. He offers both an innovative account of Tolstoy’s deepest feelings, emotions, and motives, as reflected in his personal diaries and letters, and a brilliant interpretation of his major works, including his celebrated novels on contemporary Russian society, War and Peace and Anna Karenina, and his significant philosophical writings.
