1910. Anna Karenina and War and Peace have made Leo Tolstoy the world''s most famous author. But fame comes at a price.
In the tumultuous final year of his life, Tolstoy is desperate to find respite, so leaves his large family and the hounding press behind and heads into the wilderness. Too ill to venture beyond the tiny station of Astapovo, he believes his last days will pass in isolation. But as we learn through the journals of those closest to him, the battle for Tolstoy''s soul will not be a peaceful one.

Parini''s novel The Last Station: A Novel of Tolstoy''s Final Year.
