Více o knize

Jealousy leads Marshal Pozdnyshev to a tragic act of murder, driven by his suspicion of his wife's infidelity with her music partner. This gripping narrative explores themes of lust, the complexities of marriage in the 19th century, and Tolstoy's fervent Christian ideals. The story also delves into the significance of art and music in society, reflecting on the moral dilemmas of its time. Controversial at its release in 1890, it remains a powerful commentary on human emotions and societal norms.
