The Death of Ivan Ilyich

⚰ What happens when a man who lived «properly» faces death—and realizes he never truly lived?

In La muerte de Iván Ilich (The Death of Ivan Ilyich), Leo Tolstoy delivers one of the most powerful meditations on mortality ever written. This concise yet devastating novella follows the final days of a high-ranking Russian judge whose terminal illness shatters his carefully constructed life.

As his body decays, his spirit awakens.

Ivan Ilich, once proud of his career, social standing, and family life, begins to question everything he thought he knew. Was his life authentic? Was it good? Was it even his own? Tolstoy's searing portrait of existential crisis and spiritual awakening offers readers an unflinching look into the terror—and transcendence—of death.

Short, sharp, and unforgettable.

Written after Tolstoy's own spiritual transformation, this novella is a cornerstone of world literature and a beacon for anyone seeking meaning beyond material success.
