Summary "Lapsuus, Poika-ikä, Nuoruus 2: Poika-ikä, Nuoruus" by graf Leo Tolstoy is a collection of novellas written in the early 20th century. The work explores childhood and adolescence through the eyes of its young protagonist, examining themes of growth, identity, and the transition from innocence to experience. The narrative delves into the protagonist's relationships with family and friends, particularly his interactions within a familial setting that reflects the complexities of social status and affection. At the start of the collection, the reader is introduced to a journey as the main characters prepare to travel, invoking a sense of anticipation and exploration. The story opens with various vehicles at Petrovskin's port, detailing the departure of young Volodja and his companions, alongside the emotions tied to their leaving. As they embark on their four-day journey, Volodja reflects on the liberation from grief and the excitement of new experiences, which underscores the bittersweet nature of growing up. Themes of nostalgia and the essence of youth are woven throughout the opening, setting the stage for the exploration of deeper emotional and philosophical insights as the characters navigate their changing worlds.
