Childhood

'Childhood' is a piece by one of the world's greatest writers, the Russian prose writer and thinker L. N. Tolstoy (1828–1910). It is the inaugural story of an autobiographical trilogy. The narrative delves into the psychological journey many boys undergo in their childhood. Here, the writer employs a technique that critics have dubbed the 'dialectic of the soul.' The work is an essential component of school curricula. Tolstoy created many beautiful works: 'Resurrection', 'War and Peace', 'The Prisoner of the Caucasus', 'The Cossacks', 'The Kreutzer Sonata'. Leo Tolstoy's oeuvre exerted a profound influence not only on Russian literature but also on global literary discourse. His writings delve deeply into philosophical inquiries, exploring timeless themes such as life and death, emotions and obligations, love and honor.
