Fiction

For Leo Tolstoy, fame comes at a price. Desperate to find peace, away from his wife, 13 children and the newspapermen, he makes a dramatic flight from home. Set in the tumultuous final year of the count's life, The Last Station centres on the battle for Tolstoy's soul. A spellbinding novel that dances bewitchingly between fact and fiction.
