Pavel Basinsky is a writer, journalist and literary scholar. His fascinating documentary books about the life and work of Leo Tolstoy have raised a new wave of interest in society in the phenomenon of the "apostle of Clear-Poland" ("Leo Tolstoy: Escape from Paradise", "The Saint versus Leo", "Leo in Leo's Shadow"). "The True Story of Anna Karenina" was honored with the "Big Book" award.
In his new book "The True Story of Konstantin Levin", Pavel Basinsky continues his literary investigation. Re-reading the most mysterious work of Leo Tolstoy, his drafts and diaries, Basinsky tries to find an answer to the main questions. Why does "Anna Karenina" need Konstantin Levin? Why does Tolstoy give him (with or without Kiti) half of his novel? How is Levin reflected in the other characters of the novel - Oblonsky, Vronsky, Anna, and even Karenina? Who is Konstantin Levin's prototype? Tolstoy himself or, as always, is it much more complicated? The book is illustrated with photographs from the archives of the Leo Tolstoy State Museum and the Yasnaya Polyana Estate Museum.
