@@ronanodonnell7145 What why....You might not have heard of his Novels....One of his famous Novels in those ancient times was a Story called "God sees the truth but waits" It wont be so good now but it was famous during those ancient times check it out
@@ayushhravikumar1983 I actually have read that surprisingly its a great story in fairness and I'm kinda bored of this argument so whatever he is the best writer in 'english history'
We studied this story in Year 10 English. Every time I read the last few lines of the story, I used to cry. I am 50 yes now. I still remember the name of the story and characters very well. I am from Kerala, India.
This is a great short story by Leo Tolstoy, but the reader didn't need to imitate the Russian accent. It wasn't worth it. I admire that our Russian classic is popular and, of course, Tolstoy is a genius.
Aksionov get his justice before he died bec. in the end Makar ask for forgiveness and confess he is guilty but when they release aksionov he's already dead.
He basically saved the life of Makar by forgiving him, making him confess his own guilt and become an honest person. There is no greater reward than helping one's fellow man, even if they are one's enemy. Hence Aksionov dies peacefully. Aksionov got to experience what too few people truly do: love for their fellow man. He also was brought into close contact with the one true person that can help when all is lost: God.
Excellent LESSON...... LEO TOLSTOY IS THE MOST UNDERRATED WRITER IN ENGLISH HISTORY
You mean Russian how the hell could you think he was englsih

I suppose that I was the only one who bawled at this story. I had never read it surprisingly, and I’m happy to have heard it.
I generally don't bawl.
do you agree with "God knowing the truth, but is choosing to wait?"
@@ponderings4599do you?
I read this story as "forgiveness is the sweet revenge" by Leo Tolstoy in my school..

Thank you for reading this. And, for reading it slowly.

Who is from Loyola College?
Fairytale--the real world is nowhere near the delusional philosophy of Tolstoy.
