About this book
In a period marked by social upheaval and philosophical inquiry, "The Light Shines in Darkness" by Leo Tolstoy delves into the heart of ethical conflict and personal conviction. This compelling drama follows Nicholas Ivánovich Sarýntsov as he confronts the entrenched notions of property and familial duty, advocating for a radical interpretation of Christian values. Through Sarýntsov's journey, Tolstoy examines the tension between societal expectations and individual morality, making poignant statements about the nature of true wealth and spiritual enlightenment. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians alike, this play invites readers to reflect on the profound implications of belief and responsibility in a changing world. Discover how light can illuminate even the darkest corners of human existence.
