Summary of the Book
Leo Tolstoy believed in a strong moral foundation. His writing is constantly imbued with a didactic nature and his short stories are a strong example of this. Tolstoy is celebrated to this day for his short stories, and this collection brings together some of his most memorable stories. In How Much Land Does a Man Need?, an avaricious man makes a deal with the Devil. In God Sees the Truth But Waits, an innocent man is convicted of a murder he did not commit and goes on to become a mediator among his fellow prisoners. In A Prisoner in the Caucasus, Tolstoy’s favourite story, an old man tries to barter the lives of two Russian soldiers for the life of his captive son. In Ivan the Fool, a naïve young man must bolster his struggling family's fortunes together with his mute sister. These and several other stories demonstrate Tolstoy’s penchant for a life full of love, respect and devotion for the truth.
