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.

    I cannot say enough about the joy reading this inspired and inspiring book gave me. It was an exciting, uplifting time spent with highly socially evolved beings whose integrity just makes things work out for the best. It takes a lot of skill to write about advanced beings and make them realistic. The writing is outstanding. I am so weary of reading about neurotic characters. This was a refreshing vacation with people who if were in charge of Earth, would turn it into a paradise. Please write more. Thank you for helping me get through a week in the hospital with this on my Kindle.

    Enjoyable story line, though a little simple - but then, simple is good more times than not.

    Had fun reading it, reminded me of Andre Norton and her feline characters but definitely more adult.
