This edition brings together Tolstoy’s 1886 masterpiece and several shorter works that connect with it in thought-provoking ways.

As well as crafting fresh translations both of the stories themselves and of the background materials, Kirsten Lodge has provided an illuminating introduction and helpful annotations.
