Description

“…In my own heart I felt that this novella was meant for me—that it immediately wounded me, humiliated me in the eyes of the whole world, and destroyed the last love between us,” writes Sofya Andreevna Tolstaya about “The Kreutzer Sonata” in her diary in winter 1891. A remarkable event in the literary life of the 1880s, “The Kreutzer Sonata” demonstrates—through the example of a single, specific marriage—how any marriage inevitably leads to the moral and spiritual downfall of both spouses. In response to “The Kreutzer Sonata,” Sofya Andreevna wrote the novella “Whose Fault Is It?” © Storytel
