What matters most when life is slipping away-power, wealth, or the legacy we leave behind?

In Master and Man, Leo Tolstoy presents a gripping and poignant tale about a wealthy landowner, Vasili Brekhunov, who embarks on a fateful journey with his loyal yet underprivileged servant, Nikita. As they navigate a treacherous winter storm, Brekhunov's ruthless pursuit of profit blinds him to the danger ahead-until nature forces him to confront his own mortality.

Caught in the unforgiving cold, the master and his servant face a test that will reveal the true measure of a man. Through this harrowing night, Tolstoy unravels the stark contrasts between privilege and humility, selfishness and sacrifice, and, ultimately, life and death.

What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation:

  • A Story of Redemption and Self-Discovery - Witness a powerful transformation as a man learns the true meaning of life.
  • A Gripping Tale of Survival - Experience the tension and desperation of a struggle against the elements.
  • A Timeless Exploration of Human Nature - Reflect on themes of greed, compassion, and what it means to truly live.
  • A Fresh, Accessible Translation - This adaptation ensures that Tolstoy's wisdom and storytelling remain compelling for contemporary readers.

More than just a survival story, Master and Man is a meditation on life's greatest questions-reminding us that true fulfillment is not found in riches, but in the connections we build and the sacrifices we make.

Can a selfish man find salvation in his final moments?

Get your copy today and experience Tolstoy's unforgettable tale of transformation and redemption.
