A review by worm_food
The Death of Ivan Ilyich by Leo Tolstoy

3.75

Orthodox Christianity is funny in many ways I think, especially in the way god is feared compared to other branches of the religion. This surprised me with it's succinctness and for what it is I expected it to be preachier. I liked it but it's hard to put to words why, I guess. It manages to transcend modernity bad tradition good and say something, which I do appreciate.
