"Vie de Tolstoï" by Romain Rolland is a critical biography first published in 1911. This tribute traces the tumultuous inner life of Leo Tolstoy, from his tormented youth and military service to his creative peak producing "War and Peace" and "Anna Karenina" during years of domestic tranquility. Rolland explores Tolstoy's deepening spiritual crises, his discovery of God, and his growing estrangement from his beloved wife as he confronted poverty and questioned art's
purpose. A Nobel laureate examines a literary giant's struggles. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
