Master and Man and Other Stories – Leo Tolstoy

Master and Man and Other Stories – Leo Tolstoy 

Master and Man and Other Stories showcases Leo Tolstoy’s extraordinary range as a storyteller across five decades. This collection brings together ten of his most resonant works—stories shaped by his military service, spiritual evolution, and deep moral inquiry. From the vivid contrast between generations in “The Two Hussars,” to the philosophical reflections of “What Men Live By,” to the selfless compassion portrayed in “Two Old Men,” Tolstoy blends realism, humour, and ethical clarity with unmatched precision. The title story, “Master and Man,” stands as one of his most powerful explorations of greed, mortality, and spiritual awakening. Buy in Kenya with fast delivery.
