This is the last work which the great Tolstoi wrote. He paradoxically based it on one of his personal experiences in his childhood.
In the Chechenia battles, in the middle of the 19th century, Hazdi Murat was a hermetic, admired and a fearsome character and he also was a reflection point in any time around a heartbreaking conflict which is nowadays still in force.
It is an epic story about honour and the rectitude which submerges us in a world of mountains, wars and traditions. An easy reading and tremendous story which shows us the failure of the oppressive Russia and the resistance of the ever fighting man.
It is a compendium of wisdom and experience; narrated with mordacity by this master of the Russian letters who is an obliged reference in universal literature.
