eBook 정보

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. Tolstoy's "Lucerne" is a poignant and introspective short story that explores themes of love, mortality, and the passage of time. Set in a serene lakeside town, the story follows the protagonist, Dmitry Sergeyevich, as he reminisces about his past and contemplates the meaning of life. Amidst the stunning backdrop of Lucerne, Tolstoy skillfully weaves a narrative that delves into the complexities of human emotion and the fleeting nature of happiness. The story's contemplative tone and evocative descriptions of the landscape mirror Dmitry's inner struggles and quest for understanding.
