Abstract
Tolstoy’s love life has been extensively documented and debated. Tolstoy himself addressed all this directly in letters, in diaries, and in frank conversation with memoirists; others involved, including his wife, also left their own accounts. ‘Love’ explains that Tolstoy’s major fiction, known for its autobiographical and ‘autopsychological’ elements, roughly follows the trajectory of Tolstoy’s life and loves. It documents Tolstoy’s views on love, sex, marriage, adultery, and family happiness in Childhood, Boyhood, Youth; War and Peace; Anna Karenina; ‘The Kreutzer Sonata’; and ‘Alyosha Pot’. Tolstoyan heroes are often haunted by the Ant Brothers’ dream of love and happiness for all. It may be an insurmountable obstacle on their course toward family happiness or sexual bliss.
