Experience Leo Tolstoy’s profound 19th-century masterpiece, Resurrection, presented as a paperback edition from Wordsworth Classics. This edition, published on July 7 2014, contains 496 pages of compelling narrative. The story, a third major work by Tolstoy following War and Peace and Anna Karenina, opens with a gripping courtroom drama. This powerful sequence, inspired by a real event, features Prince Dmitri Nekhlyudov, who, while serving on a jury, recognizes the accused woman as someone he once seduced. His subsequent determination to rectify the injustice catapults him into an intricate and often scathing exploration of the Russian legal system, its prisons, and its bureaucracy. Tolstoy uses this journey to deliver sharp satire and critique a state apparatus rife with cruelty and injustice, drawing parallels to the works of Charles Dickens but with adult themes. The novel, comprising a vast cast of characters, resonates with a sense of urgency comparable to Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment set half a century earlier. With vivid depictions of sexual passion, societal conflict, and profound social injustice, Resurrection traverses diverse settings from opulent apartments to the grim realities of Siberian exile. The narrative culminates in a crisis of moral responsibility that challenges not only the protagonist and the author but also the reader, prompting reflection on fundamental questions of law and imprisonment. This classic fiction, bound in paperback, is in new condition.
