4.0

A good story, an ironic parable on the nature of greed versus need. The story this book features after, What Men Live By, is a wonderful story befitting a Christmas movie adaptation. Reminded me in tone of It's a Wonderful Life, albeit with a different premise. I think I preferred it as a story, however the book as a whole was lovely. Would encourage me to read more of Tolstoy's works.
