Description
Leo Tolstoy's Resurrection is a powerful exploration of guilt, anger and forgiveness. When Prince Dmitri Nekhlyudov sees Katyusha, a young woman he once abandoned, serving on the jury at his trial, he is forced to confront the consequences of his past actions. As Dmitri grapples with his own morality, he decides to devote himself to rescuing Katyusha, even if it means following her into exile in Siberia. But can a man truly find redemption by saving another person? Tolstoy's novel is a scathing indictment of injustice and corruption at all levels of society. This Penguin Classics edition features a superb new translation that preserves Tolstoy's gripping realism and satirical humour, as well as an introduction that provides context and insight into the author's intentions.
