*Resurrection<br />

Translated with an Introduction and<br />

Notes by Anthony Briggs<br />

Published here in a marvelous new<br />

translation, Resurrection tells the story of a<br />

Russian nobleman who comes face to face<br />

with the sins of his past. Conceived on an<br />

epic scale, this novel is both a trenchant<br />

denunciation of government, aristocracy,<br />

and the Church as well as a highly<br />

personal statement of Tolstoy’s beliefs.<br />

Resurrection<br />

Translated with an Introduction by<br />

Rosemary Edmonds<br />

In this story of a fallen man and<br />

an emphatically non-Christian<br />

“resurrection,” Tolstoy writes a<br />

compelling tale of the underworld and<br />

turns a highly critical eye on the law, the<br />

penal system, and the Church.<br />
