On the edge of the world. Leskov N. S.

n. S. Leskov, a native of the clergy, better than all his contemporaries revealed the theme of righteousness and sin, genuine holiness and frenzied godlessness. The work “on the edge of the world” is based on a genuine case from missionary activities in Siberia of the Yaroslavl Archbishop Nile. In his story, Leskov describes the life of one of the most oppressed "wild" peoples of Russia, doomed to death. The hero of the “enchanted wanderer.” The author evaluates a long way to repentance and gaining spiritual peace.
