AUTHOR | Tolstoy, Leo; Tolstoy, Leo Nikolayevich |
PUBLISHER | Createspace Independent Publishing Platform (05/27/2015) |
PRODUCT TYPE | Paperback (Paperback) |
Description
The indignant and frightened thoughts of a good man who is, suddenly and inexplicably, dying: this is the crux of The Death of Ivan Ilyich, composed by Leo Tolstoy in the period just following his vehement conversion to a more virulent form of Christianity. A sharp criticism of the mediocre - and in Tolstoy's view, meaningless - life being played out by an emerging middle class in Russia, Ivan Ilyich was written as a kind of warning against complacency masked as contentedness and a call for his readers to contemplate the possible meaninglessness of their own lives.
