Redemption

Redemption: And Two Other Plays is a collection of three plays written by the acclaimed Russian author Leo Tolstoy. The first play, Redemption, tells the story of a wealthy landowner named Dmitri Ivanovich Nekhlyudov who realizes the error of his ways and seeks to make amends for his past misdeeds. The second play, The Power of Darkness, explores the themes of greed, lust, and betrayal through the story of a peasant family torn apart by the actions of its members. The final play, Fruits of Culture, is a satirical commentary on the hypocrisy and superficiality of the Russian aristocracy. Through these three plays, Tolstoy delves into complex moral and social issues, offering a powerful critique of the injustices and inequalities of his time. Written in 1919, this collection remains a timeless masterpiece of Russian literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
