Narrative Supposing Books How Much Land Does a Man Need?

Küçük kızkardeş: "Ne fark eder ki?" diye cevap verdi. "İşimiz kaba ve bayağı bir iş olabilir ama güvenilir bir iş. Hiç kimseye boyun eğmiyoruz. Ama şehirde sizin etrafınız insanı günaha teşvik edici şeylerle çevrilmiş. Bugün her şey yolunda olabilir, ama yarın şeytanın kocanı kumarla, kadınla, şarapla baştan çıkarmayacağı ne malum? O zaman her şey mahvolur. Böyle şeyler görülmemiş mi sanki?" Evin reisi Pahom, fırının üzerine uzanmış kardıların konuşmalarını dinliyordu. "Gerçekten de öyle" diye düşündü. "Biz köylüler çocukluğumuzdan ölümümüze kadar toprakla uğraştığımız için aklımıza böyle sersemce şeyler gelmez. Bizim tek sıkıntımız, yeterli toprağımızın olmayışıdır. Eğer istediğim kadar toprağım olsaydı, şeytandan bile korkmazdım."
(Tanıtım Yazısından)

How Much Land Does a Man Need - 4/5 starsWhat Men Live By - 4/5 stars

If you're thinking to read a short story then read this one. It will be the finest short story you are ever going to read. James Joyce wrote to his daughter that it is "the greatest story that the literature of the world knows". Truly a masterpiece! A timeless story.

Thanks to my GR friend Tadiana for the link to this wonderful short story.I love "moral of the story" stories and this one did an excellent job on greed. After I finished it, I had to pass it on to someone else and the victim happened to be a coworker who was walking by. He probably looked at me funny, but I really hope he reads it and will come back and tell me what he thought about it.

The edition I read has two short stories, the title story and another called What Men Live By.I first heard of the title story some years ago when I read Anthony Beevors book Stalingrad. Beevor used How Much Land Does A Man Need? as a chapter heading in his book (Im sure I neednt mention who he was referring to). At the time I made a mental note to read the story one day.In the title story, a peasant exclaims to his wife that all he needs in life is a little more land. If he had more land he

Wow what a fantastic short story about a greedy man. It reads almost like a parable, Tolstoy seems to have a lot of contempt for Pahom whose greed for more and more land gives the Devil an idea to play with him.Tolstoy was such a talented writer and he shows it in this story by drawing you in very quickly and leaving you almost out of breath at the end.One of Tolstoy's best, thanks to Kevin Ansbrofor the recommendation.

A genious short story about human being's greed that also works like a wake up call. The last sentence was absolute perfection.
