Savva and The Life Of Man is a collection of two plays written by the Russian author Andreyev, Leonid and first published in 1917. The first play, Savva, is a tragic drama that explores the themes of love, faith, and betrayal. The story follows the life of Savva, a young man who falls in love with a woman named Liza. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Liza is already married to a wealthy man. As their love affair unfolds, Savva is forced to confront his own beliefs and the consequences of his actions.The second play, The Life Of Man, is an allegorical drama that explores the concept of life and death. The story follows a man who is born into the world and must navigate the challenges and struggles of life. Along the way, he encounters various characters who represent different stages of life, including youth, love, and old age. As the man grows older, he must confront the inevitability of death and come to terms with his own mortality.Both plays are characterized by Andreyev's unique style, which blends realism and symbolism to create powerful and thought-provoking narratives. With its exploration of complex themes and its vivid characters, Savva and The Life Of Man remains a timeless classic of Russian literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
