Om denne e-bog

A new translation into modern American English directly from the original Russian manuscript. This edition contains an Afterword by the translator, a timeline of Tolstoy's life and works, and a glossary of philosophic terminology used throughout Tolstoy's literature and philosophy. "Two Old Men" by Leo Tolstoy is a heartwarming and touching short story that follows the friendship between two elderly peasants, Eremey and Iván, as they face the challenges of old age and the uncertainties of life. Set against the backdrop of a remote Russian village, Tolstoy's masterful storytelling weaves a poignant tale of camaraderie, resilience, and the triumph of the human spirit over adversity. Through the characters of Eremey and Iván, Tolstoy portrays the timeless themes of love, companionship, and the importance of human connection. "Two Old Men" is a testament to Tolstoy's profound understanding of human nature and his ability to capture the beauty in life's simplest moments. This touching story continues to resonate with readers as a celebration of the enduring power of friendship and the wisdom that comes with age.
