About Sevastopol

Dive into the poignant world of Sevastopol Sketches, a collection of three short stories penned by the illustrious Leo Tolstoy. Published in 1855, these narratives capture the authors firsthand experiences during the Siege of Sevastopol (1854–1855) in the Crimean War. Named after the city in Crimea, this work is also known by its anglicized title, The Sebastopol Sketches, and sometimes referred to as Sevastopol Stories. In the story Sevastopol in December, Tolstoy employs a captivating second-person narrative that immerses readers in the vibrant life of Sevastopol, echoing the impressions he likely received upon his arrival in late 1854. Meanwhile, Sevastopol in May delves deep into the absurdity and futility of war, exploring themes of heroism and the deceptive nature of truces. Ultimately, Tolstoy asserts that the only true hero in this tale is truth itself. Join us as we explore these powerful sketches that laid the groundwork for his monumental work, War and Peace.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
