Boyhood by Leo Tolstoy: Epitome

Abridged by Pietro Caracciolo

Description:
Dive into the world of young Nikolay, an aristocratic boy navigating the turbulent transition from childhood to adulthood in 19th-century Russia. In Boyhood, Leo Tolstoy masterfully explores themes of personal identity, family dynamics, first loves, and the inner struggles of youth.

This abridged edition (approximately 15,000 words) maintains the heart of Tolstoy's second novel in his Childhood, Boyhood, and Youth trilogy, offering readers a concise yet powerful rendition of his introspective and deeply psychological narrative.

Perfect for lovers of classic literature, coming-of-age stories, and philosophical reflections on human nature, this epitome makes one of Tolstoy's formative works more accessible to modern readers while preserving its depth and beauty.

A must-read for those who seek a glimpse into Tolstoy's early literary genius and the universal challenges of growing up.
