Like a monster from one of the ghost stories we used to tell as kids, the past has been finding its way in. It bubbles up through the cracks when I`m not paying attention, and pulls at me with greedy fingers. This is what they warned me about for all those years: the heavy weight in my chest, the nightmare-fragments that follow me even in waking life. I warned you, Aunt Carol says in my head. We told you, Rachel

Resurrection, the last of Tolstoy`s major novels, tells the story of a nobleman`s attempt to redeem himself for the suffering his youthful philandering caused a peasant girl.
