Resurrection by graf Leo Tolstoy
"Resurrection" by graf Leo Tolstoy is a novel published in 1899. A nobleman serving on a jury recognizes the prostitute on trial as a young woman he seduced and abandoned years earlier. Confronted by his past crime, he embarks on a journey of moral awakening, following her into Siberian exile while witnessing the brutal injustices hidden beneath Russia's aristocratic surface. Tolstoy's final major work challenges institutionalized hypocrisy and explores one man's desperate
quest for redemption. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
