Book Description

Autobiography. Count Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy, commonly referred to in English as Leo Tolstoy, was a Russian novelist, writer, essayist, philosopher, Christian anarchist, pacifist, educational reformer, moral thinker, and an influential member of the Tolstoy family. As a fiction writer Tolstoy is widely regarded as one of the greatest of all novelists, particularly noted for his masterpieces War and Peace and Anna Karenina; in their scope, breadth and realistic depiction of Russian life, the two books stand at the peak of realistic fiction. As a moral philosopher he was notable for his ideas on nonviolent resistance through his work The Kingdom of God is Within You, which in turn influenced such twentieth-century figures as Mohandas K. Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr.

    Thanks for this helpful book that helps us "hearing" people to understand deaf culture and how we can better communicate with deaf people.

    Because I am partially deaf I know the feeling of not belonging in the conversation or being able to watch the movie with others without the captions. My 96 year old mom has the same problem so when I saw this book I was instantly interested.It is well written and easy to follow. Thankyou for sharing Tiffany.
