Summary "Kreuzer-sonaatti" by graf Leo Tolstoy is a novella written in the early 20th century. The story delves into the complexities of marriage, fidelity, and human desires, primarily through the lens of a traveling train ride where various characters engage in discussion about love and relationships. The narrative invites readers into a profound exploration of moral dilemmas and societal norms regarding intimacy and fidelity. At the start of "Kreuzer-sonaatti," the plot introduces a diverse group of train passengers engaged in a lively discussion about marriage and love. A nervous gentleman, referred to as Posdnishev, overhears an animated conversation between an attorney and a woman, who discuss evolving ideas of divorce and relationships. As tensions rise, Posdnishev becomes increasingly agitated by the discussions surrounding fidelity and societal expectations. The narrative sets the stage for Posdnishev's eventual revelation, as he grapples with his turbulent past and relationship with his wife, ultimately hinting at his personal tragedy linked to love and betrayal.
