By 1910, following the publication of Anna Karenina and War and Peace, Leo Tolstoy is the world's most famous author. But fame comes at a price. Desperate to find peace at the end of his life, away from his wife, thirteen children and the newspapermen, Tolstoy makes a dramatic flight from home.
Set in the tumultuous final year of the count's life, The Last Station centres on the battle for Tolstoy's soul. Drawing on the diaries of the writer and those closest to him, including his wife, daughter and doctor, it is a spellbinding novel that dances bewitchingly between fact and fiction.
The Last Station is now a major motion picture starring James McAvoy and Helen Mirren.
