<b>The Death of Ivan Ilych by Leo Tolstoy</b>&nbsp;(Russian:&nbsp;?????? ????? ??????,&nbsp;romanized:&nbsp;<i>Smert&#39; Iv&aacute;na Ilyicha</i>), first published in&nbsp;1886, is a&nbsp;novella&nbsp;by&nbsp;Leo Tolstoy, considered one of the masterpieces of his late fiction, written shortly after his&nbsp;religious conversion&nbsp;of the late 1870s.<br /><br />Considered to be one of the finest examples of a novella,&nbsp;<i>The Death of Ivan Ilyich</i>&nbsp;tells the story of a high-court judge in 19th-century Russia and his sufferings and death from a terminal illness.<br /><br />Ivan Ilyich lives a carefree life that is &quot;most simple and most ordinary and therefore most terrible&quot;. Like everyone he knows, he spends his life climbing the social ladder. Enduring marriage to a woman whom he often finds too demanding, he works his way up to be a magistrate, thanks to the influence he has over a friend who has just been promoted, focusing more on his work as his family life becomes less tolerable.<br /><br />While hanging curtains for his new home one day, he falls awkwardly and hurts his side. Though he does not think much of it at first, he begins to suffer from a pain in his side. As his discomfort grows, his behavior towards his family becomes more irritable. His wife finally insists that he visit a physician. The physician cannot pinpoint the source of his malady, but soon it becomes clear that his condition is terminal.<br /><br />Confronted with his diagnosis, Ivan attempts every remedy he can to obtain a cure for his worsening situation, until the pain grows so intense that he is forced to cease working and spend the remainder of his days in bed. Here, he is brought face to face with his mortality and realizes that, although he knows of it, he does not truly grasp it.
