Master and Man

A Masterpiece of Tolstoy

“He, like all people who live with nature and know want, was patient and could wait calmly for hours, even days, without feeling either alarm or vexation.” - Master and Man, Leo Tolstoy
Master and Man is the story of Vasili Andreevich and his servant Nikita, trapped for the night in a snowdrift, struggling to survive against the gathering intensity of a storm.
