What if a single dishonest act could change lives forever?

In The Forged Coupon, Leo Tolstoy masterfully crafts a gripping narrative that begins with a simple deception and spirals into a complex web of crime and retribution. When young Mitya, desperate for money, alters a banknote to increase its value, he unknowingly sets off a chain reaction that leads to theft, betrayal, violence, and despair. The counterfeit coupon changes hands, dragging more and more people into a cycle of wrongdoing-until a moment of unexpected redemption shifts the course of events.

With sharp social critique and deep psychological insight, Tolstoy exposes the impact of unchecked greed and moral decay while offering a hopeful vision of transformation through kindness and faith.

What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation:

  • A Suspenseful Tale of Crime and Consequence - Follow the trail of a single forged note as it wreaks havoc on countless lives.
  • A Thought-Provoking Exploration of Morality - Witness how small decisions can lead to either destruction or salvation.
  • A Fresh, Accessible Translation - This adaptation ensures Tolstoy's timeless message is clear and engaging for today's readers.
  • A Powerful Reflection on Redemption - See how one act of kindness can break the cycle of violence and suffering.

More than just a crime story, The Forged Coupon is a profound meditation on justice, human nature, and the ultimate triumph of goodness over evil.

Does evil always spread, or can goodness restore balance?
