Description

A forged coupon passes from hand to hand, spreading harm through a chain of ordinary people until conscience and compassion begin to answer. Tolstoy?s stories of moral consequence, evil?s ripple, and the power of awakening goodness. Spoken as when one small false act keeps travelling until someone finally stops it with mercy.

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.
