About This Book

In 1889 Tolstoy published The Kreutzer Sonata, a novella, named after Beethoven's Kreutzer Sonata. The main character, Pozdnyshev, â€"a quirky character with definite sexual viewsâ€" in a train ride, gives a personal account of the motives that led him to killing his wife. While many may see strong “feminist” arguments in the novella, others will find contradictions; or, a form of “womanist,’ views in which women is attributed to hold power over men.
