Description

The Kreutzer Sonata by Leo Tolstoy is a thought-provoking novel that explores the complexities of human relationships and the role of art in society. When suspicion turns to jealousy, a devastating act of violence unfolds, revealing the darker side of passion and the hypocrisies of 19th-century marriage. Tolstoy's work was highly controversial upon its publication in 1890, sparking debates about his Christian ideals and his views on lust and art. This Modern Library Paperback Classic offers a unique insight into Tolstoy's artistic vision and its relevance to feminist literature and the understanding of literary figures. The Kreutzer Sonata also includes Tolstoy's sequel to the novel, providing a nuanced exploration of the human experience.
