| Tolstoy and his grandchildren, c. 1909 |
The first book in my Tolstoy book group is Childhood.
I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I thoroughly enjoyed the book! I listened to this Audible version:
The Leo Tolstoy Complete Collection
Childhood is the first in a series of three novels, followed by Boyhood and Youth. Published when Tolstoy was just twenty-three years old, the book was an immediate success.
Today's discussion was great... and I'm grateful that it didn't go over my head! I was interested to learn that it was semi-autobiographical.
We will be discussing Boyhood and Youth in the next two meetings.
