Iuda Iskariot - Andreev Leonid Nikolaevich

Judas of Cariot is a symbol of betrayal, a great sinner who condemned Jesus Christ to death. At the same time Judas is perhaps the most mysterious evangelical character - so he is attractive to Leonid Andreev with his interest in contradictions in the human soul.
The story of Judas Iscariot, in the author's own words, is "a fantasy about betrayal, good and evil." Andreev tries to understand what led Judas' actions and why he kills himself. The writer fills the evangelical plot of betrayal with psychological content, reflecting on love and hatred, suffering and sacrifice, random and inevitable.
The collection also includes the novel "Diary of Satan", the novel "The Life of Basil Ofweisky," "The Story of the Seven Hanged" and other works of different periods of Andreev's work.
