Download or read book The Final Struggle written by Countess Alexandra Tolstoy and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harmony was not the leitmotif of the Tolstoys's marriage. In wedlock for forty-eight years, some of them happy, many of them turbulent, the couple had reached the nadir of mutual exasperation in 1910, the final year of Tolstoy's life. No biography could illustrate this more graphically than these diaries for that fateful year. In addition to the Countess's own diary and day book, salient extracts are also reproduced from not only from Leo Tolstoy's diary but his private diary (For Myself Alone) as well. There is more. It seems that almost everyone in the household had a sense of history and was recording their own observations of the domestic disintegration. The extensive footnotes quote liberally from, among others, Valentin Bulgakov (Tolstoy's secretary), Alexander Goldenweiser (pianist and close friend of Tolstoy), Vladimir Chertkov (Tolstoy's leading disciple, executor of his will, and the most controversial person in the book - the Countess's bête noire) and the eldest son, Sergey Tolstoy. The end is well-known: Tolstoy finally flees the family estate, Yasnaya Polyana, only to die shortly afterwards in the station-master's house at Astapovo. 'Never, never marry, my dear fellow! That's my advice: never marry till you can say to yourself that you have done all you are capable of, and until you have ceased to love the woman of your choice and have seen her plainly as she is, or else you will make a cruel an irrevocable mistake.' So says Prince Andrew to Pierre in War and Peace, but it could be the epigraph for this book. By all means see the film, The Last Station, but read this book as well.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important and long-overdue contribution to our knowledge of Tolstoy.' D. M. Thomas, Sunday Times Volume 2 of Tolstoy's Diaries covers the years 1895-1910. These Diaries were meticulously edited by R.F. Christian so as to reflect Tolstoy's preoccupations as a writer (his views on his own work and that of others), his development as a person and as a thinker, and his attitudes to contemporary social problems, rural life, industrialisation, education, and later, to religious and spiritual questions. Christian introduces each period with a brief and informative summary of the main biographical details of Tolstoy's life. The result is a unique portrait of a great writer in the variegation of his everyday existence. 'As a picture of the turbulent Russian world which Tolstoy inhabited these diaries are incomparable - the raw stuff not yet processed into art.' Anthony Burgess 'A model of scholarship, one of the most important books to be published in recent years.' A. N. Wilson, Spectator

THE DIARY OF LEO NIKOLAYEVIGH TOLSTOY 1846 or 18471 March xjth, Kazan.--It is six days since I entered the hospital, and six days since I became almost contented. Les petiies causes produisent les grands effects.2 [20]]. Yes, I have mounted the step on which I long ago set foot, but on to which I had hitherto failed to wriggle my body (probably because, thoughtlessly, I had kept putting my left foot before my right). Here I am entirely alone, and have no one to disturb me. Here I have no servant, no one helps me. Consequently nothing extraneous is able to influence my judgment and recollection, and my mental activity cannot but develop. The chief advantage is the fact that I have come to see clearly that the irregular life which the majority of fashionable people take to be an outcome of youth is, really, an outcome of early spiritual corruption. The man living in society3 finds solitude as beneficial as the man not living in society finds social intercourse. Let a man but withdraw from society, and retire into himself, and his reason will strip off the spectacles through which he has hitherto seen everything in a corrupt light, and cause his view of things to undergo such a clarification that he will be at a loss to understand how he had failed to perceive things as they are. Only let reason do its work, and it will point out to you your destiny, and furnish you with rules with which to enter boldly into society. Everything conformable with man's prime faculty, reason, will be conformable with everything else existent. For the reason of the individual human being is a portion of everything else existent: and a portion cannot disorganize the whole. Yet the whole can annul a portion: wherefore 'fashion your reason so as to conform with...
