The Death of Ivan Ilyich and Master and Man

Mehr zum Buch

Exploring profound themes of mortality and life's meaning, this edition features two significant works by Tolstoy. "The Death of Ivan Ilyich" follows a bureaucrat reflecting on his seemingly wasted life as he faces death, while "Master and Man" depicts a landowner and his servant navigating a perilous snowstorm, forcing them to reassess their values and relationships. Both stories, newly translated by Ann Pasternak Slater, offer moving insights into the human experience of dying and the quest for spiritual redemption.
