Status Updates From Three Novellas: New Transla...

moment, kiedy landlord pyta swojego chłopa: dlaczego jesteś biedny, a ten w myślach określa owe pytanie mianem silly question… dosłownie uwielbiam to, jakie pstryczki w nos daje społeczeństwu tołstoj

mam tak śliczną okładkę tego zbioru, i wish i could add it

The first novella started out really good but ended up being bland. Hope the next 2 wouldn’t disappoint

On Family Happiness: Tolstoy seems to have human nature pinned down. This was exactly how one would expect a normal relationship to unfold - the allure of the dream, the honeymoon phase, the dissipating of the high, the awareness of each other's flaws, worry and mistrust about the state of the relationship, and finally, settling into a comfortable state - loving friends without the drama. But. Hm.

On A Landowner's Morning: So what is this? I think it's about the fickleness of happiness. We jump from one ideal to another, realising each time that it's always unattainable. The ideals could only work if everyone else in our world played their parts correctly. Unfortunately, while we're the centre of our own worlds, no one else really cares... Hm.
