The Forged Coupon

di Tolstoy Leo (Autore)

Tim Zengerink (Traduttore)

The Library of Alexandria, 2025

What if one small lie unleashed a storm of fate you could never control? The Forged Coupon begins with a schoolboy who, desperate to repay a debt, alters a two-ruble coupon into a higher sum. Believing the harm to be trivial, he sets in motion a tragic sequence that pulls in peasants, merchants, gamblers, thieves, and priests. With each pass of the tainted note, Tolstoy unveils how ordinary people justify wrongdoing-and how unseen grace can still break through the darkness. What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation: A Domino Effect of Moral Choices - See how a single forgery multiplies into theft, murder, and spiritual crisis. Two Interlocking Parts - Part I exposes the spread of evil; Part II reveals the surprising power of repentance. A Modern, Accessible Voice - Tolstoy's moral clarity and narrative drive rendered for today's reader. A Profound Study of Conscience - Explore themes of guilt, justice, social hypocrisy, and redemption. Tolstoy's Final Moral Testament - Written after Resurrection, this novella distills his lifelong quest for spiritual truth. In an age of quick clicks and unintended fallout, The Forged Coupon is a haunting reminder that no act is ever isolated-and no soul beyond saving.
