Light Shines in the Dark: a Collection of Tolstoy's Dramas (classics in Translation)
About This Novel
This book contains four of Tolstoy's most important dramatic works: "The Force of Ignorance", "The Fruits of Education", "Light Shines in the Dark" and "The Living Corpse". Although Tolstoy's dramatic works are not as well-known as his novels, they directly and vividly reflect Tolstoy's ideological changes in his later years and reflect his unique aesthetic value and ethical and moral consciousness. Among them, the unfinished five-act play "Light Shines in the Dark" is almost a mirror image of Tolstoy's own life, projecting all his thoughts, doubts and dilemmas into it, and his departure in the last stage of his life seems to be the last scene of this unfinished play. In terms of the artistry of the drama itself, Tolstoy's plays have received mixed reviews. However, the huge ideological power contained in them has more important value and significance today.
