Description

In "Evil Allures, But Good Endures," Tolstoy examines the ways in which evil can seduce people into its clutches. He posits that evil is often more appealing than good, as it offers immediate gratification and pleasure. However, Tolstoy argues that ultimately good will always triumph over evil, as it is more enduring and fulfilling. This is an insightful examination of the battle between good and evil, and the ways in which each can lure people to their side.

Author

Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910) was born to a titled family at Yasnaya Polyana, served in the Crimean War, and wrote the two novels that made Russian fiction a world event: War and Peace and Anna Karenina. The first holds a nation at war and at home; the second holds a marriage until it breaks. Later he turned from the worldly novel toward essays and moral tales, arguing with church, property, and his own fame. One hundred and six titles here.
