The Strange Life of Ivan Osokin is a philosophical novel written by P.D. Ouspensky. The story revolves around the life of Ivan Osokin, a young man who feels trapped in the monotony of his life and longs to change his fate. He meets a mysterious magician who offers him the chance to relive his life and correct his mistakes. Ivan jumps at the opportunity, only to find himself caught in an endless cycle of repeating the same mistakes over and over again. As Ivan struggles to break free from this cycle, he begins to question the nature of reality and the meaning of life. The novel explores themes of free will, destiny, and the consequences of our choices. It is a thought-provoking and introspective work that challenges readers to reflect on their own lives and the choices they make.1947. The novel begins: On the screen at Kursk station in Moscow. A bright April day of 1902. A group of friends, who came to see Zinaida Krutitsky and her mother off to the Crimea, stand on the platform by the sleeping-car. Among them Ivan Osokin, a young man about twenty-six. Osokin is visibly agitated although he tries not to show it. Zinaida is talking to her brother, Michail, Osokin's friend, a young officer in the uniform of one of the Moscow Grenadier regiments and two girls. Then she turns to Osokin and walks aside with him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
