About this listen

 Resurrection, the final major work of fiction by Leo Tolstoy published during his lifetime, delves into the profound injustices of man-made laws and the hypocrisy embedded within institutionalized religion. Initially serialized in the magazine Niva to support the resettlement of the Dukhobors, this compelling narrative follows nobleman Nekhlyudov on his quest for redemption after a long-buried sin resurfaces. His fleeting affair with a maid leads to her dismissal and a descent into prostitution, igniting his determination to rescue her from despair. As he grapples with his own moral and mental turmoil, the story unfolds as a poignant exploration of guilt, redemption, and the human condition.
