Boyhood by Leo Tolstoy audiobook.
Genre: drama
Leo Tolstoy's Boyhood continues the intimate, semi-autobiographical story of Nikolai Irtenyev as he leaves the relative shelter of childhood and steps into the restless, self-conscious world of early adolescence. Now moving between the routines of study, the expectations of adults, and the sharp hierarchies of aristocratic society, Nikolai begins to measure himself against friends, rivals, and the ideals he longs to embody. Small social missteps feel catastrophic, private feelings take on new intensity, and every glance or comment seems to carry hidden judgment. At home, shifting family dynamics and the presence of tutors, relatives, and visitors expose him to competing models of masculinity, honor, and faith. In school and in drawing rooms alike, he faces the central conflict of growing up: how to be sincere and good when pride, envy, and the desire to belong keep tugging him off course. With psychological precision and quiet emotional power, Tolstoy captures the awkwardness, wonder, and moral searching of boyhood as Nikolai tries to understand who he is becoming.
