Leo Tolstoy
Leo Tolstoy grew up in Russia, raised by a elderly aunt and educated by French tutors while studying at Kazen University before giving up on his education and volunteering for military duty. When writing his greatest works, War and Peace and Anna Karenina, Tolstoy drew upon his diaries for material. At eighty-two, while away from home, he suffered from declining health and died in Astapovo, Riazan in 1910.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is a set of stories I want to share with others. It is Tolstoy at his most profound because his theme is the most profound, and also touches most closely to his heart and the message he most wants to share. He brings out these themes in his longer works at once more deeply but also more obliquely. These short stories give us a condensed version of his heart message.
