Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set against the backdrop of the Crimean War, this collection features three historical fiction tales inspired by Tolstoy's experiences during the Siege of Sevastopol. The first story, "Sevastopol in December," provides an immersive introduction to the city and its atmosphere. The second, "Sevastopol in May," reflects on the futility of war, foreshadowing themes explored in "War and Peace." The final tale depicts the town's tragic fall. Written early in Tolstoy's career, these sketches showcase his emerging literary prowess and profound insights into human nature.
