The Death of Ivan Ilyich by Leo Tolstoy: Epitome

By Leo Tolstoy | Abridged by Pietro Caracciolo

What if everything you lived for turned out to be meaningless?

Ivan Ilyich is a respected judge, living what he believes to be a successful and proper life—until a sudden illness forces him to confront his own mortality. As he faces the reality of death, he begins to question the choices he made, the relationships he nurtured, and the true meaning of existence.

In The Death of Ivan Ilyich, Leo Tolstoy delivers a profound and haunting meditation on life, death, and spiritual awakening. This abridged edition (approximately 12,200 words) distills Tolstoy's powerful narrative into a concise yet deeply impactful reading experience, making it more accessible while preserving its emotional and philosophical depth.

A must-read for fans of classic literature, philosophical fiction, and introspective storytelling.
