The Death of Ivan Ilych

Meer over het boek

The narrative centers on Ivan Ilych, a successful but self-centered careerist confronting his impending death while surrounded by an indifferent family and colleagues. Through this poignant exploration, Tolstoy delves into profound themes of mortality, the essence of a fulfilling life, and the inevitability of death. This edition includes the esteemed Oxford translation by Aylmer and Louise Maude, praised by Tolstoy for their exceptional understanding of both languages and the depth of his work.
