Lazarus is a novel written by Leonid Andreyev, originally published in 1906. The story is set in a small Russian town and centers around the character of Lazarus, who is brought back to life after being dead for four days. The novel explores the themes of death, religion, and the human condition.Lazarus, a poor and sickly man, is resurrected by a mysterious figure who appears to be Jesus Christ. However, Lazarus is not happy to be brought back to life as he has lost all faith in humanity and sees no point in continuing to live. He becomes a recluse and is shunned by the townspeople who fear him as a symbol of death.As the story progresses, Lazarus becomes increasingly disillusioned with the world and begins to question the existence of God. He is tormented by visions of the afterlife and the possibility of eternal damnation. The novel is a powerful exploration of the human psyche and the struggle to find meaning in life.Written in a lyrical and poetic style, Lazarus is a haunting and thought-provoking novel that explores some of the most fundamental questions of human existence. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, religion, and the human condition.And when the scarlet, flattened globe would lower, Lazarus would set out for the desert and walk straight toward the sun, as though striving to reach it. He always walked straight toward the sun and those who tried to follow him and to spy upon what he was doing at night in the desert, retained in their memory the black silhouette of a tall stout man against the red background of an enormous flattened disc.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
