Written in 1903, this thought-provoking story by Tolstoy presents a parable about God's intentions behind creating work, death, and sickness, illustrating their role in human happiness. As the narrative unfolds, it explores the relationship between mankind and these essential aspects of life. The story concludes with the idea that, ultimately, God chooses to leave humanity to its own devices.
