Childhood And Youth: A Tale is a semi-autobiographical novel written by Leo Tolstoy and first published in 1862. The story follows the life of a young boy named Nikolai Irtenev, who grows up in a wealthy family in Russia during the 19th century. The novel is divided into two parts: Childhood and Youth.In Childhood, Nikolai is depicted as a curious and imaginative child who is deeply affected by the death of his mother. He struggles to understand the world around him and often feels isolated from his family and peers. He finds solace in nature and his relationship with his nanny, Agafya, who becomes a maternal figure to him.In Youth, Nikolai is a teenager who is sent away to a military academy. He becomes disillusioned with the strict and oppressive nature of the institution and begins to question the values and beliefs of his society. He falls in love with a young woman named Katya, but their relationship is complicated by social class and family expectations.Throughout the novel, Tolstoy explores themes of identity, morality, and the search for meaning in life. He also critiques the social and cultural norms of his time, particularly the rigid class system and the emphasis on material wealth. Childhood And Youth: A Tale is a poignant and insightful coming-of-age story that offers a glimpse into the mind of one of the greatest writers of all time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
