Summary
The Devil is a novella by Leo Tolstoy, was published in 1911, after the writer’s death. It tells the story of a married landowner slowly overcome with unrelenting sexual desire for one of the peasants on his estate. Before his marriage, he had many sexual relationships with women while living in St. Petersburg. He inherited an estate in the country after the death of his father and he decided to leave the city. In his new life, he lives with his mother. She thinks it is time for him to get married. But after a year of marriage, he finds himself in a position where he needs to have his lust satisfied again.
Leo Tolstoy explored the tortures of lust in several of his story which is written in the last years of his life. In these later works - like The Devil, Father Sergius, and The Kreutzer Sonata - he portrays sexual desire as one of the bodily temptations that must be renounced in order to find the divinity within. This version of the book is translated by Soroosh Habibi to Persian (Farsi) and narrated by Hamed Faal. The Persian version of The Devil’s audiobook is published by Maktub worldwide.
Please note: This audiobook is in Persian.
