內容簡介

"The Forged Coupon and Other Stories" is a collection of short stories written by Leo Tolstoy, one of the most renowned Russian authors of the 19th century. First published in 1911, this collection showcases Tolstoy’s keen insight into human nature, social issues, and moral dilemmas.


The titular story, "The Forged Coupon," is the centerpiece of the collection and deals with themes of morality, guilt, and redemption. It follows the consequences of a seemingly minor crime-an act of forgery committed by a young student-that sets off a chain of events with far-reaching implications for multiple characters. Through this narrative, Tolstoy explores the complexities of human behavior and the interconnectedness of individual actions.



In addition to "The Forged Coupon," the collection features several other short stories, each offering its own glimpse into the human condition. Some of the notable stories include:


  1. "After the Dance" This story delves into the aftermath of a lavish ball and the disillusionment experienced by the characters once the festivities have ended. It reflects Tolstoy’s critique of the superficiality and hedonism of the aristocratic class.
  2. "The Kreutzer Sonata" Widely regarded as one of Tolstoy’s most controversial works, this story explores themes of jealousy, passion, and marital discord. It follows the descent into madness of a man consumed by irrational jealousy over his wife’s perceived infidelity.
  3. "The Death of Ivan Ilyich" A poignant exploration of mortality and existential crisis, this story follows the life of a high-ranking judge who confronts his own mortality after being diagnosed with a terminal illness. Through Ivan Ilyich’s introspective journey, Tolstoy raises profound questions about the meaning of life and the pursuit of true happiness.
  4. "Master and Man" In this story, Tolstoy explores the dynamics of class and human relationships through the journey of a wealthy merchant and his servant. Stranded in a blizzard, the two men confront their differences and grapple with the true value of material wealth in the face of impending death.



Overall, "The Forged Coupon and Other Stories" offers a rich tapestry of narratives that showcase Tolstoy’s mastery of storytelling and his deep philosophical insights. Through vivid characters and thought-provoking themes, Tolstoy invites readers to contemplate timeless questions about morality, compassion, and the nature of existence.
