The Forged Coupon

Фальшивый купон

Lev Tolstói en Yásnaia Poliana (1908)
byLeo Tolstoy

Posthumous novella in two parts. A schoolboy forges a coupon and sets off a chain of evil that passes from hand to hand as far as murder; in the second part the meekness of one victim, Maria Semyonovna, reverses the chain and good spreads in the same way. Written between the late 1880s and 1904, published in 1911.
