A Russian Proprietor: And Other Stories is a collection of short stories written by Leo Tolstoy and first published in 1888. The book contains eleven stories, each depicting the lives of different characters in Russia during the late 19th century. The title story, A Russian Proprietor, follows the life of a wealthy landowner who becomes disillusioned with his privileged position and begins to question the morality of his actions. Other stories in the collection include The Death of Ivan Ilyich, which explores the themes of mortality and the search for meaning in life, and The Kreutzer Sonata, which examines the destructive power of jealousy and sexual desire.Tolstoy's writing style is characterized by its realism and attention to detail, and his stories often explore the complexities of human relationships and the struggles of ordinary people. The collection is considered a masterpiece of Russian literature and has been translated into numerous languages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
