Description

Nikolay Semenovich Leskov’s novella “The Ram-Bull” tells of the “new man” of his time—someone seeking ways to change reality, agitating the people against the rich, and defending the Russian common man and the poor. At the same time, the novella is written in Leskov’s unusually light style, conveying the beauty of Russian life and the simplicity of human relationships.
