A Night in Arzamas: How Tolstoy’s obsession with mortality became a teachable moment. By Jordan Smith
Highly recommended is this 2,700 word essay on Tolstoy, his unfinished Notes of a Madman, and his Death of Ivan Ilych.
To find it, Google the March/April 2012 issue of The American Interest.
Smith does a nice job of bringing Tolstoy into our time, writing insightfully about Becker and TMT and Irvin Yalom and even the EBF and The Denial File (mentioned courtesy of an interview Smith had with Dan Liechty). |
