The Last Station

By 1910, Leo Tolstoy had become an almost religious figure, surrounded on his lavish estate by family and followers alike. Too ill to continue beyond the tiny station of Astapovo, he believes he is dying alone. This book centres on the battle for his soul waged by his wife and his leading disciple.

Pana in 1910, Lev Tolstoi devenise o figura aproape religioasa, inconjurat de familia si adeptii sai, la proprietatea sa luxoasa. Prea bolnav pentru a continua dincolo de mica statiune Astapovo, el credea ca moare singur.
