More about the book

Exploring themes of faith and morality, the book delves into Tolstoy's journey from his upbringing in the Russian Orthodox Church to a life of excess and eventual spiritual longing. In his later years, he sought intellectual security through a universal understanding of faith, asserting that it provides profound meaning to human existence despite suffering and death. Tolstoy's belief in pacifism, stemming from his interpretation of Christianity, positions him as a philosophical anarchist, critiquing the inevitability of war instigated by governments.
