The Kreutzer Sonata and Other Stories

This beautiful softcover edition is in fine condition, with no marks or tears and only minimal shelf wear. The pages are tight, appear unread, and the book is tight, square, and unmarked. The Kreutzer Sonata and Other Stories by Leo Tolstoy, translated by Roger Cockrell, is a compelling collection of provocative tales exploring themes of morality, passion, and the human condition. The title story, inspired by Beethoven’s Kreutzer Sonata, was banned in several countries upon publication due to its controversial subject matter. Tolstoy’s works in this collection reflect his evolving views on religion, morality, and societal reform. Cockrell’s translation is praised for its clarity and fidelity to Tolstoy's original voice.
