Acerca deste livro eletrónico

A new translation into modern American English directly from the original Russian manuscript. This edition contains an Afterword by the translator, a timeline of Tolstoy's life and works, and a glossary of philosophic terminology used throughout Tolstoy's literature and philosophy. Childhood (1852) by Leo Tolstoy is a semi-autobiographical novella that revolves around the early life of its protagonist, Nikolenka, and his experiences growing up in rural Russia during the early 19th century. The work focuses on the inner world and emotional development of a young boy as he grapples with the complexities of family, friendship, and the natural world. Tolstoy masterfully portrays the innocence and wonder of childhood, delving into the joys and pains that shape Nikolenka's character. The novella's literary merit lies in its lyrical prose, vivid descriptions, and deep exploration of the human psyche, making it a poignant reflection on the universal experience of youth. |
