Question

Literature can entertain and amuse us, and as we see from Tolstoy's story, it can teach us, challenging us to examine what is truly worth loving and what is best lost. In the story, Pahom's love is misguided and ultimately leads to his death.

Based on Pahom's tragic fate, we know Tolstoy's opinion on this issue of loving and pursuing material things. In today's world, he might drive around with a bumper sticker that reads, "You cannot take it with you." Now it is our turn to explore this issue of loving "things" in our lives and society.
