Book Hadji Murad - Novel

Product description

Tolstoy wrote this novel in the last years of his life, during a period when he was suffering from the illness that led to his death, so much so that it was said to be a stance he wanted to take in the face of injustice and to discuss the meaning of justice.

On the other hand, the novel carries Tolstoy's critical view of how Tsarist Russia dealt with the people of Dagestan.

In this novel, as in War and Peace, Tolstoy, while appreciating heroic qualities and rejecting injustice, opposes the idea of perishing for glory.

Therefore, he depicts an inglorious end for that exemplary hero.

As in most of his works, he presents a picture of the entire Russian history full of wars, conspiracies, betrayals, and suffering.

However, the core of this novel remains the life of that character, Hadji Murad, whom he portrayed in an attractive and endearing way, and the harsh life of the people of the Caucasus and the injustice they face.

Despite its small size, the story of 'Hadji Murad' was considered one of Tolstoy's most beautiful masterpieces and received wide acclaim from readers, even influencing Gandhi's idea of non-violent resistance.

The famous philosopher Wittgenstein, who admired it, said: 'It possesses the coolness and clarity of a late work.
