Publisher's Summary
Hadji Murat is a short novel by Leo Tolstoy which was published posthumously in 1912. It tells the story of Hadji Murat, a separatist guerrilla in the Caucasus who falls out with his own commander and eventually sides with the Russians in the hope of saving his family.
Hadji Murat differs from the other works Tolstoy produced in this period: In The Devil (1889), The Kreutzer Sonata (1890), "Father Sergius" (1898), Resurrection (1899), "Master and Man" (1895), and The Forged Coupon (1905), the theme is man's moral duty, which is not the case in Hadji Murat, a realist narrative based on actual people and events. It was written about 50 years after the events described, and Tolstoy used archival material, including Murad's own account of his life.
