Towards the end of his life, Tolstoy, author of "War and Peace" and "Anna Karenina", said of the daily records that he had kept all his life: "the diaries are me". They open in 1847 with Tolstoy recovering from gonorrhoea, and, spanning the following 60 years, they paint a portrait of Tolstoy's political, moral and literary beliefs.
