Synopsis

The Russian author reinterprets the gospels, disregarding issues related to Jesus's divinity and focusing strictly on his words and teachings. The result is a remarkably modern meditation on spirituality.

About the Author, Leo Tolstoy

One of the great masters of the 19th-century novel, Tolstoy created a sweeping epic in War and Peace which folds together huge events in history and politics with the emotional lives of individuals. But it was his deeply spiritual outlook that made him an icon.
