Master and Man and Other Stories

The ten stories collected in this volume demonstrate Tolstoy's artistic prowess displayed over five decades experimenting with prose styles and drawing on his own experiences with humour, realism and compassion. Inspired by his experiences in the army, "The Two Hussars" contrasts a dashing father and his mean-spirited son.
