Set against the backdrop of the Caucasus, the story follows young Olenin, a disillusioned Muscovite seeking authenticity in life by joining the Russian army. As he attempts to immerse himself in the rugged lifestyle of the Cossacks, he becomes enamored with a spirited local girl, only to face competition from her formidable fiancé. This semiautobiographical tale reflects Tolstoy's philosophical depth and offers a fresh perspective through Peter Constantine's vibrant new translation.
