Tolstoy may have written some of the most expansive novels in all literature, but he also created wonderful short works, too. In a spectacularly illustrated volume that captures all the atmosphere of Tolstoy's Russia, Tolstoy scholar Donna Tussing Orwin carefully presents and annotates five of the writer's finest stories: "God Sees the Truth, But Waits," "How Much Land Does a Man Need?," The Empty Drum," "The Imp and the Crust," and "Three Questions." Louise and Aylmer Maude, who knew Tolstoy personally, have translated the text.

The Meaning of the Russian Revolution
"The Meaning of the Russian Revolution" is a novel by Nobel Prize winning and highly-acclaimed Russian author Leo Tolstoy. In describing the 1905 Russian Revolution Tolstoy traces back the history of Europe as a whole and Russia in particular. He suggests that the nation has come full circle and that the people who had earlier submitted themselves to monarchical rule now find themselves burdened with its excesses and corruption. He however advocates for non-violent revolution as the means to bring about a new Russian society.
