Diary of a Lunatic/Three Deaths (annotated) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781533076601)

Diary of a Lunatic/Three Deaths is a collection of two classic Leo Tolstoy stories. This morning I underwent a medical examination in the government council room. The opinions of the doctors were divided. They argued among themselves and came at last to the conclusion that I was not mad. But this was due to the fact that I tried hard during the examination not to give myself away. I was afraid of being sent to the lunatic asylum, where I would not be able to go on with the mad undertaking I have on my hands. They pronounced me subject to fits of excitement, and something else, too, but nevertheless of sound mind. The doctor prescribed a certain treatment, and assured me that by following his directions my trouble would completely disappear. Imagine, all that torments me disappearing completely Oh, there is nothing I would not give to be free from my trouble. The suffering is too great
