annotated: contains six essays about Leo Tolstoys and his worktranslated by Benjamin Ricketson Tucker.The Kreutzer Sonata (Russian: Крейцерова соната, Kreitzerova Sonata) is a novella by Leo Tolstoy, published in 1889 and promptly censored by the Russian authorities.

The main character, Pozdnyshev, relates the events leading up to his killing his wife; in his analysis, the root cause for the deed were the "animal excesses" and "swinish connection" governing the relation between the sexes.The ebook also contains the short novels:- IVAN THE FOOL- A LOST OPPORTUNITY. - POLIKUSHKA - THE CANDLE.
