Lazarus

Lazarus is a novel written by Leonid Andreyev, a Russian writer, and playwright. The book tells the story of a man named Lazarus who is brought back to life by Jesus Christ. However, Lazarus is not pleased with his resurrection, as he is forced to return to a world full of suffering and pain. He becomes an outcast, shunned by society, and haunted by the memory of his death and resurrection. The novel explores themes of life, death, and the human condition, as well as the role of religion in society. Andreyev's writing style is dark and introspective, and he delves deeply into the psyche of his characters. The book is a classic of Russian literature and has been widely praised for its powerful imagery and emotional depth.And when the scarlet, flattened globe would lower, Lazarus would set out for the desert and walk straight toward the sun, as though striving to reach it. He always walked straight toward the sun and those who tried to follow him and to spy upon what he was doing at night in the desert, retained in their memory the black silhouette of a tall stout man against the red background of an enormous flattened disc.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
