A Confession, or My Confession, is a short work on the subject of melancholia, philosophy and religion by the acclaimed Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy. It was written in 1879 to 1880, when Tolstoy was in his early fifties. The book is a brief autobiographical story of the author's struggle with a mid-life existential crisis. It describes his search for the answer to the ultimate philosophical question: "If God does not exist, since death is inevitable, what is the meaning of life?." Without the answer to this, for him, life had become "impossible".

Leo Tolstoy was born in 1828 in the Russian province of Tula to a wealthy noble family. As a child, he had private tutors but he showed little interest in any formal education. When he went to the University of Kazan in 1843 to study oriental languages and law, he left without completing his courses. Life now was relaxed and idle but with some writing also taking place. In 1852 ‘Childhood’ was published to immediate success and was followed by ‘Boyhood’ and ‘Youth’. His experience in the army and the horrors he witnessed resulted in ‘The Cossacks’ in 1862 and the trilogy ‘Sevastopol Tales’.

This collection brings together stories and reflections in which Leo Tolstoy turns inward. Stripped of grandeur, these works offer something more intimate: the inner noise of conscience, the weight of faith, the silence before death. A servant's silence, a horse's memory, a dying man's doubt—these are not performances. They are questions, waiting quietly for whoever dares to ask the same. Tolstoy isn't offering answers. He's writing toward something deeper. And the questions haven't aged a day.

Aşkın ateşiyle yanıp toplumun buz kesen duvarlarına çarpan Anna Karenina… Tolstoy’un ölümsüz romanı şimdi daha kısa, fakat aynı yüreklilikle karşınızda. Bu yeniden kurgulanmış edisyonda sayfalar hızla akıyor; Anna ile Vronski’nin sarsıcı tutkusu, Levin ile Kitty’nin toprağa kök salan umutları ve Karenin’in geç kalmış pişmanlıkları ilk günkü canlılığıyla içimize işliyor. Gereksiz ayrıntılar ayıklandı, ama Rusya’nın kar kokulu sokakları, balo salonlarının ışıltısı ve tren raylarının uğultusu yerli yerinde kaldı.

Tolstoy’un ölümsüz eseri “İnsan Neyle Yaşar”, yüzyıllar sonra hâlâ insan yüreğine dokunan basit bir soruyu peşine takıyor: Bizi hayatta tutan gerçek güç nedir?

Tolstoy, melekler ve kırbacın gölgesinde geçen bu masalsı anlatıda, ekmeğin tadından adaletin yüküne, on bin talant borcundan bozkır rüzgârına uzanan geniş bir insanlık panoraması kuruyor.
