The Light Shines in Darkness

“The Light Shines in Darkness” by Leo Graf Tolstoy is an unfinished play by the famed Russian writer. Though the work is fiction, Tolstoy lets more of himself seep into the writing making this one of his most personal works. The writer's own turmoils are present in the book in a way that seems to lack in his other masterpieces, which makes this one of, if not his most important work of all.
