A Calendar of Wisdom Daily Thoughts to Nourish the Soul, Written and Se

Leo Tolstoy — 2010

This is the first-ever English-language edition of the book Leo Tolstoy considered to be his most important contribution to humanity, the work of his life's last years. Widely read in prerevolutionary Russia, banned and forgotten under Communism; and recently rediscovered to great excitement, A Calendar of Wisdom is a day-by-day guide that illuminates the path of a life worth living with a brightness undimmed by time. Unjustly censored for nearly a century, it deserves to be placed with the few books in our history that will never cease teaching us the essence of what is important in this world.

I recently re-acquired this book, and have gained even more from it than the first time I read it. While I read it straight through this time, I am now going back and reading it daily as it is intended. It is meant to be read daily, to consider universal spiritual ideas as you go through your day. Tolstoy considered this book his most important work, and I can understand why.
