What were the last pieces that Tolstoy wrote, fiction and non-fiction? not considering his letters and diaries.

  • There is a Penguin Classics book which is a collection of his last works; fiction, nonfiction, diaries, and letters. It paints a pretty complete picture of later beliefs.

    That's great, thanks!

  • Fiction: an autofictional short story Grateful Soil (Благодарная почва), written in September 1910.

    Non-fiction: an article against capital punishment The Effective Means (Действительное средство), in response to a letter from Kornei Chukovskii; written in late October 1910, after leaving Yasnaya Polyana, published posthumously.

  • I think it could be Hadji Murat. It was published posthumously in 1912 and written in 1904.
