Description
First of all, the Master of the Novel TOLSTOY is never routine.
Second of all, he taps into his very soul as profoundly as other Russian writers including Dostoevsky and Pasternak.
When I had the occasion to read this very short (an armchair read of no more than an hour, tops) novelette, I was deeply depressed and needed someone to pull me up. This selection did so because he did what is so rare with writers in English--he wed Christian principle to universal human longing and a deeply-anchored sense of hope in assurance that Rev Robert Schuler or the late Rev Norman Vincent Peale have never matched.
IF YOU WONDER, CAN A PERSON OF FAITH WHOSE HOPES HAVE BEEN DASHED AGAIN AND AGAIN, EVER FIND INSPIRATION AND PRAY TO GOD AGAIN--take this elixir now. As the angel admonished St. Augustine of Hippo, Take up and read.
Be forewarned though, if you have tears to shed, prepare to shed them now.
