Resurrection was the last novel written by Leo Tolstoy.

Also translated as The Awakening. The book is the last of his major long fiction works published in his lifetime.

Tolstoy intended the novel as an exposition of the injustice of man-made laws and the hypocrisy of the institutionalized church.

The novel also explores the economic philosophy of Georgism, of which Tolstoy had become a very strong advocate towards the end of his life, and explains the theory in detail.

It was first published serially in the popular weekly magazine Niva in an effort to raise funds for the resettlement of one-third of the Doukhobors from Russia.
