Book excerpt: "Before 1945, Poland, now a fledgling EU country, was an almost Tolstoyan world of wolf hunts and extravagant wealth, set alongside great poverty and a semifeudal peasantry, in a landscape of frozen fields and dark forests. Broken by war, it was reduced by communism to drab uniformity, and a way of life was lost forever." "This world out of time is the setting for Andrew Tarnowski's memoir, The Last Mazurka, a tale of loss and exile, love and violence, wandering and longing."--BOOK JACKET.

Book excerpt: The shot Count Hieronim Tarnowski fired on his wedding night in 1914, on the eve of the First World War, was like a tocsin that sounded the doom of his ancient Polish family. When, in August 1939, on the eve of another war, his daughter Sophie saw blood pouring down the side of her train, she felt a terrible foreboding and knew her idyllic world would be swept away. Thirty years later, when Count Hieronim's British grandson Andrew learned of the death of his mother---the beautiful, fragile, and abused Chouquette---his sense of a lost identity deepened and he set out to rediscover the world from which he came. These moments punctuate an extraordinary tale of the downfall of a once-powerful family, which in turn mirrors the twentieth-century fate of a nation ravaged by invasions and crushed by tyranny. Before 1945, Poland, now a fledgling EU country, was an almost Tolstoyan world of wolf hunts and extravagant wealth, set alongside great poverty and a semifeudal peasantry, in a landscape of frozen fields and dark forests. Broken by war, it was reduced by Communism to drab uniformity, and a way of life was lost forever. This world out of time is the setting for Andrew Tarnowski's memoir, The Last Mazurka, a tale of loss and exile, love and violence, wandering and longing, told with poignancy and unexpected humor, and a lingering regret.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Best Book of the Year Nobel Prize Laureate Mazurka for Two Dead Men, the culmination of Camilo José Cela‘s literary art, opens in 1936 at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War: Lionheart Gamuzo is savagely murdered. In 1939, as the war ends, his brother avenges his death. For both deaths, the blind accordion player Gaudencio plays the same mazurka. Set in backward rural Galicia, Cela’s excellent novel portrays a reign of fools, and works like contrapuntal music, its themes calling and responding, alternately brutal, melancholy, funny, lyrical, and coarse.

With works ranging from epic novels such as 'War and Peace' and 'Anna Karenina' to thought-provoking essays on art, religion, and politics, Tolstoy's writing showcases his deep understanding of human nature and societal issues. His distinct literary style combines vivid storytelling with philosophical introspection, making his works timeless classics in the literary canon. Tolstoy's exploration of moral dilemmas and ethical questions resonates with readers of all ages, as he challenges conventional norms and delves into the complexities of the human experience. Leo Tolstoy, a prolific Russian writer and thinker, drew inspiration from his own life experiences and philosophical beliefs to create works that continue to captivate audiences worldwide. His commitment to social change and spiritual enlightenment is evident throughout his writings, as he grapples with the fundamental questions of existence and morality. Tolstoy's dedication to truth and authenticity infuses his works with a sense of urgency and relevance that transcends time and place. I highly recommend 'The Complete Works of Leo Tolstoy' to readers seeking a deeper understanding of human nature, morality, and the complexities of society. Tolstoy's profound insights and timeless storytelling make this collection a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the depths of the human soul and the complexities of the world we inhabit.
