Sewastopol by graf Leo Tolstoy
"Sewastopol" by graf Leo Tolstoy is a collection of three short stories published in 1855. Drawing from his direct experiences during the siege of Sevastopol in the Crimean War, Tolstoy crafts vivid sketches of military life, wounded soldiers, and the brutal realities of combat. The stories explore the psychology of war, the nature of heroism, and the senselessness of conflict. These sketches would later form the foundation for episodes in his masterwork,
"War and Peace." (This is an automatically generated summary.)
