Author Biography

Alexei Tolstoy (1883-1945) was a Russian author. Accumulated experience of life had inculcated in his heart a profound love for the Russian people, and he became more exacting of himself as a writer. In progressive stages his consuming interest in the destiny of Russia and his endeavor to shed true light upon the character of the Russian people became the outstanding feature of the products of his artistic pen. Alexei Tolstoy was a deputy to the Superme Soviet of the USSR and a member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR.
