Description

Leo Tolstoy's 'Sevastopol Sketches' is a series of three semi-autobiographical short stories which are based on his own recollections and experiences of the Crimean War. As a young artillery officer, Tolstoy was present at Sevastopol - the city under intense siege during the war, and his experiences of the grim situation are retold here in gruesome detail.

The horrors and realities of war are laid bare as Tolstoy contrasts the heroism of soldiers with the futility of war.

Undoubtedly an influence for his later epic 'War and Peace', 'Sevastopol Sketches' is an important novel in the timeline of Tolstoy's work. -
