ABOUT THE BOOK: Childhood is the first published novel by Leo Tolstoy, released under the initials L. N. in the November 1852 issue of the popular Russian literary journal The Contemporary. It is the first in a series of three novels, followed by Boyhood and Youth.
Published when Tolstoy was just twenty-three years old, the book was an immediate success. It earned Tolstoy notice from other Russian novelists including Ivan Turgenev, who heralded the young Tolstoy as a major up-and-coming figure in Russian literature.
Childhood explores the inner life of a young boy, Nikolenka. It is one of the books in Russian writing to explore an expressionistic style, mixing fact, fiction, and emotions to render the moods and reactions of the narrator.
Childhood, Boyhood, Youth by Leo Tolstoy: Themes of Shyness and Self-Improvement. Leo Tolstoy began Childhood, Boyhood, Youth – a trilogy – in his early twenties. It is a vibrant account of a young person's emerging awareness of the world, himself, and the people around him, as described through the eyes of Nikolenka.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy (Russian: Лев Николаевич Толстой; most
appropriately used Liev Tolstoy;
commonly Leo Tolstoy in Anglophone countries) was a Russian writer who primarily wrote
novels and short stories. Later in life, he also wrote plays and essays. His
two most famous works, the novels War
and Peace and Anna Karenina, are acknowledged as two of the
greatest novels of all time and a pinnacle of realist fiction. Many consider Tolstoy to have been one of the world's
greatest novelists. Tolstoy is
equally known for his complicated and paradoxical persona and for his extreme
moralistic and ascetic views, which he adopted after a moral crisis and
spiritual awakening in the 1870s, after which he also became noted as a moral
thinker and social reformer.
His literal interpretation of the ethical teachings of Jesus, centering on the Sermon on the Mount, caused him in later life to become a fervent Christian anarchist and anarcho-pacifist. His ideas on nonviolent resistance, expressed in such works as The Kingdom of God Is Within You, were to have a profound impact on such pivotal twentieth-century figures as Mohandas Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr.
