Описание к видео How Much Land Does a Man Need? Short Story by Leo Tolstoy with a Truly Ironic Twist.

"How Much Land Does a Man Need?" is a short story by Leo Tolstoy that explores the theme of greed and its consequences. The protagonist, Pahom, is a peasant who becomes obsessed with acquiring more land, believing it will bring him happiness and peace. He eventually encounters a land deal offered by the Bashkirs, where he can own as much land as he can walk around in one day for a small price, but he must return to the starting point by sunset. Driven by greed, Pahom walks a great distance, but exhausts himself in his attempt to encompass as much land as possible. Ironic and apt twist ending.
