Romance
Leonid Andreyev is widely considered one of the most talented writers in Russian literature. In his prose, he reflected the influence of A. Chekhov's realism, the fascination with psychological paradoxes of F. Dostoevsky, and a constant obsession with the insignificance of life and the inevitability of death, in the manner of L. Tolstoy. In "Judas Iscariot," Leonid Andreyev leads us to reflect on the true role of Judas in the Passion of Christ and suggests a possible interpretation: that the betrayal perpetrated by Judas was a kind of destiny to which he could not resist. It will be up to the reader to answer this and other questions, or perhaps, be left even more in doubt after reading this small masterpiece by Leonid Andreyev.
