The Kreutzer Sonata. The Death of Ivan Ilyich. Hadji Murad

A collection of novellas by Leo Tolstoy, bringing together three significant works from the late period of his career. “The Kreutzer Sonata”—a controversial novella about jealousy and marital relations; “The Death of Ivan Ilyich”—a profound philosophical work on the meaning of life and death; and “Hadji Murad”—a historical novella about a Caucasian warrior who fought both against the Russians and against Shamil. These works are united by deep psychological insight, philosophical reflection, and the author’s critical view of society.
