About this ebook
Leo Tolstoy's work, 'Little Girls Wiser Than Men', is a pertinent exploration of the ways in which traditional gender roles and expectations are challenged by an unfolding narrative. Through his use of satire and irony, the text confronts societal values associated with the subjugation of women within patriarchal systems. By critiquing prescribed gender norms, Tolstoy invites the reader to reflect upon the capacity for female characters to transcend their imposed limitations through acts of individual autonomy.

Author
Leo Tolstoi
Leo Tolstoy grew up in Russia, raised by a elderly aunt and educated by French tutors while studying at Kazen University before giving up on his education and volunteering for military duty. When writing his greatest works, War and Peace and Anna Karenina, Tolstoy drew upon his diaries for material. At eighty-two, while away from home, he suffered from declining health and died in Astapovo, Riazan in 1910.
