About The Porcelain Doll

"The Porcelain Doll" is an 1863 letter by Leo Tolstoy and his wife Sonya Tolstoy to the sister of his wife, which is treated by literary critics as a short story. In this story, according to literary critic David Holbrook, Tolstoy tells of his concern for his wife and how he had dreamed of Sonya entering his room at night. Later in the story, the woman turns into a porcelain doll that needs protection from the vulnerability of shattering. According to literary critic Randall Jarrell, who examined the piece, it was written six months after Tolstoy married Sonya.
