    About this ebook

    Leo Tolstoy's short story A Grain As Big As a Hen's Egg is a work of literary fiction that explores the notion of freedom and its implications on the individual. Through its use of symbolism and characterization, Tolstoy examines the power dynamics between people as they grapple with the concept of personal autonomy. In this narrative, the protagonist is presented with a dilemma: whether to choose autonomy or remain in servitude.

    Leo Tolstoi

    Leo Tolstoy was born in 1828 in Tula, near Moscow. His parents, who both died when he was young, belonged to the Russian nobility, and to the end of his life Tolstoy remained conscious of his aristocratic status. His novels, ‘War and Peace’ and ‘Anna Karenina’ are literary classics and he is revered as one of the greatest writers of the nineteenth century. He died in 1910 at the age of 82.
