Jan. 4th edition of the NY Times has a story on page one about Tolstoy and his lack of official recognition in Russia and an elder statesman who is trying to rehabilitate Tolstoy's image. Interesting reading. The intellectuals in Russia have accused the Russian Orthodox Church of blacklisting Tolstoy and the 100 anniversary of his death (Nov.20 2010) was hardly recognized.
Check it out.
