Hardcover. Condition: very good. Second edition. In 'Polikushka', Tolstoy for the first time is mainly concerned with peasants, a class that played a role, but not a dominant one, in his later fiction. Originally published after the emancipation of the serfs in 1863, it is concerned, with peasant existence before they obtained t…heir freedom. The tone of refined humor that aimed to ridicule the false and insincere in art appeared for the first time in his fiction. On this same high level of performance, he continued to write about the peasant and his relation to the landowner in brilliant sections of 'War And Peace' and 'Anna Karenina'. Second French edition. Half purple leather, marbled boards and end-papers. Provenance: bookplate of Sara Lowell Blake, prominent in patriotic circles, president of the Massachusetts Society of Colonial Dames, and member of the DAR, Boston's Liberty Tree Chapter, and the Widow's Society of Boston. Some rubbing to the edges. book.
