Leo Tolstoy
Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910), author of War and Peace and Anna Karenina, was foremost among the great Russian novelists of the 19th century, and is widely considered one of the greatest writers of prose fiction in world history.
In his perceptive and moving depiction of Ivan Ilych, a worldly careerist facing his own mortality in the midst of a self-absorbed family and indifferent colleagues, Tolstoy provides one of literature's greatest and most memorable reflections on the meaning of the good life and on life as preparation for death.
This edition features the classic Oxford translation of Aylmer and Louise Maude, of whom Tolstoy himself said, "Better translators, both for knowledge of the two languages and for penetration into the very meaning of the matter translated, could not be invented."

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Death of Ivan Ilych?
Ivan is utterly common in the way he fears death, and reflects on a life of pursuing comfort that ultimately has left him with no sense of meaning.What didn’t you like about Soren Filipski’s performance?
A great narrator should disappear completely, allowing the listener to experience the story. Soren repeatedly, jarringly, reminded me he was reading with strained intonations and unnatural-sounding dialogue. The quality of the recording was sub par as well, with a kind of distant static present throughout.Great introspective, narrated terribly.
