Book Description

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.

Reader Reviews

    Quite absorbing!
    22 Oct 2024
    Duncan James at his best- I should say! The narrative provides a graphic account of what transpires among the Spy Agencies behind the scenes and their operating styles... an insight into the life and controls in North Korea (a real time account), which is quite educative and informative. Quite interesting and absorbing. However, I have one question: Was it really necessary to kill Peter- robbing Maurice of the full satisfaction and enjoyment of the success of his mission??... Thanks to the Author and the e.books.net for providing me an opportunity to read this wonderful novel...!! - PVV Satyanarayana
