This essay is a little different than others on my channel. It is a wholly subjective interpretation of the topics and works discussed. It discusses only what I personally take away from a couple of Leo Tolstoy's writings. Thus, this video leaves out significant parts of both The Confession and The Death of Ivan Ilyich (the former of which is largely a religious text). I would not recommend this video as a substitute for reading either of those works. Horses Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HorsesPTSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
