Description:

Resurrection
"Passing by a corn-dealer's shop, in front of which a few pigeons were strutting about, unmolested by anyone, the prisoner almost louched a groy-blue bird with her foot; it fluttered up and few case to her ea, fanning her with its wings. She smiled, then sighed deeply as she remembered her present position."

Resurrection by Leo Tolstoy, a story of guilt, anger and forgiveness, was his last completed novel.

The tale follows Prince Nekhludoff on his journey to redeem a grave wrong committed years ago on a young orphan Maslova From stinking prison cells to offices of state, from luxurious mansions to filthy hovels, the story brings to life the corruption hypocrisy and misery underlying the fate of convicts and prison life in Russia.

Anna Karenina
"As he looked round, she too hired her head. Her shining grey eyes, that looked dark from the thick lashes, rested with friendly attention on his face..
In that brief look Vronsky had time to notice the suppressed eagerness which played over her face, and fitled between the brilliant eyes and the faint smile that curved her red lips."

Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy is a tale set in the Moscow and Petersburg high society of the nineteenth century.

A scandalous affair between Anna Karenina and Alexey Vronsky fashions the tone of the story. The novel's realistic portrayal of the repercussions and the consequent emotions of the relationship is riveting. Running parallel to the main narrative is a self-portrayal of Tolstoy in the character of Konstantin Levin. Together, the two recitals explore society politics, philosophy, matrimony, altruism, religion, paranoia, life, and death.

The Death of Ivan Ilyich
"Everyone around him either did not understand or did not want to understand and thought that everything in the world was going on as before."

Written in 1886 by Tolstoy, The Death of Ian Ilich is considered a reflection of what the author himself felt at the time, It was thought to be one of the finest novels of its time and is known for its take on greed, corruption and for its realism.

This novella is the about the life of Ivan Ilyich, the perfect bureaucrat, who is happy to focus on his career and to live as high society expects. Diagnosed with an incurable disease that leaves him incapacitated, he struggles with his reality: As the story ends he finds comforts in the simple acceptance of death by a servant as a natural part of life and dies in peace.

Can this story help us understand the connection bewween death and the true meaning of life, love and compassion?

War and Peace Volume 1
"One step beyond that boundary line which resembles the line dividing the living from the dead lies uncertainty, suffering, and death. And what is there? Who is there? there beyond that field, that tree, that roof lit up by the sun? No one knows, but one wants to know. Lou fear and yet long to cross that line, and know that sooner or later it must be crossed and you will have to find out what is there, just as you will inevitably have to learn what lies the other side of death."

War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy is an epic tale that chronicles Napoleon's war against Russia and its repercussions on this Tsarist empire.

With a staggering cast of characters, over a massive sweep of the fatherland, Tolstoy weaves an intricate story of love, intrigue, conflict, and hate. From soirees and balls, he transports the reader into councils of war and gory battlegrounds. How do the different players in this historical saga surface, after the dust settles on the narrative?
