The Godson by Leo Tolstoy is a short story that revolves around a young boy named Nikolai who is the godson of a wealthy landowner named Ivan Mironov. Nikolai's parents are poor and cannot afford to raise him, so Ivan takes him in and raises him as his own. However, as Nikolai grows older, he becomes aware of the social and economic differences between himself and Ivan's own son, Vanya. Despite Ivan's attempts to treat both boys equally, Nikolai feels like an outsider in the family and struggles with his identity as a godson. The story explores themes of class, identity, and the complexities of familial relationships. Tolstoy's writing is characteristically insightful and poignant, making The Godson a thought-provoking read.THIS 28 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Master and Man and Other Parables and Tales, by Leo Tolstoy.
