Unbelievable. Thanks for including that painting, by the way. I had never seen it. I know what you mean – 1912! Unbelievable.

I haven't yet locked in what Tolstoy I am going to read but I'm 99% sure I'll be starting <eM>The Death of Ivan Ilych</em> tonight. My issue with Tolstoy is that he lived so damned long, and changed so much, that whatever I have time to cram in now is only the tiniest slice. And it's years and years since I read <em>Anna Karenina</em>. So yes, <em>Hadji Murat</em>, someday, but I'm not ready to jump to 1912.

I'm curious about "A Prisoner in the Caucasus" (1872), though, because it is the basis for a perfect 1996 movie tiled <i>Prisoner of the Mountains</i>.
