Resurrection by Tolstoy stands out to be one of the best classical piece of Literature even penned down by a mortal. And, even today, it amazes people world-wide, and compels people to bow their heads down in respect towards Tolstoy, an extraordinarily gifted literature of all times. The story revolves round Nekhlyudov, a wealthy aristocrat (like most Russian aristocrats, his wealth is inherited), in his quest to fix the evil he did to Katyusha (a young girl whom he seduced in the past, and who became a prostitute as a result of that), and understand all the rights and wrongs of life. One day, she was presented before the judge for trial. She did not recognize the judge, but the judge instantly recognized her, and a deep remorse filled his heart. What is penned later is beyond description. The novel probes deeply into human psychology, and tries to establish a relation between the society and human character. It is simply superb - the way remorse is described, the way the fate of the lady is mentioned, and the life inside a jail. It goes into deep roots of crime in society. All in all, this book is highly recommended. Maybe some time I'll read it again and then will post a fuller review. There's so much beautiful in it, it's really hard to describe - just read it.

I think I want to tell them, I think I want to talk. I feel a humming in my chest and I think I might have some words, maybe, though I’m not sure how to order them, or what they would mean, but I open my mouth—
Maybe you should not have given them so much of you. Maybe you would have never known a little of what love tasted like if you didn’t, Nor would you have learned that you can be enough for someone, yet, too much for them.

This is a classic story that I believe everyone should read. Be careful that it is not a light hearted read though. This book is heavy if you consider yourself a progressive thinker. The ideas of society and government that are presented in this book are so painfully true that it's hard to believe that it wasn't written yesterday. You care for the

“This heartbreak,” he says, sitting at the table, placing a napkin on his lap. “And I don’t mean what happened with that young man, because those things, they come and go, it’s one of the painful lessons we learn. I think you are having a different sort of heartbreak. Maybe a kind of heartbreak of being in the world when you don’t know how to be. If that makes any sense?” He takes another sip of wine. “Everyone has that moment, I think, the moment when something so… momentous happens that it rips your very being into small pieces. And then you have to stop. For a long time, you gather your pieces. And it takes such a very long time, not to fit them back together, but to assemble them in a new way, not necessarily a better way. More, a way you can live with until you know for certain that this piece should go there, and that one there. ”
