Can love and desire ever truly coexist without destruction?
In The Kreutzer Sonata, Leo Tolstoy presents one of his most controversial and psychologically complex works. Through the intense and confessional narrative of Pozdnyshev, a man consumed by jealousy and suspicion, the novel explores the fragile nature of marriage, the dangers of unchecked passion, and society's distorted views on love and relationships.
After years of emotional estrangement, Pozdnyshev becomes convinced that his wife is unfaithful, leading him down a path of paranoia and despair. As his obsession grows, his inability to control his emotions drives him to commit an unthinkable act. Inspired by Tolstoy's own moral and philosophical struggles, The Kreutzer Sonata is a scathing critique of romantic idealism, sexual passion, and the hypocrisies of social convention.
