Plot synopsis
Lyonya lives alone. Alone, he runs a farm; alone, he sows,
ploughs, and reaps the small harvest. But it is impossible to
say that Lyonya is lonely: he has a horse and a piglet. Lyonya
loves the horse and the pig; the pig has got attached to the
horse, and the horse protects the pig. Lyonya ploughs and
carries loads on horseback and the pig amuses them both.
These three are glued to each other and know everything
about each other. That is why Lyonya is surprised how
Tolstoy could portray a sadomasochistic horse in
ìKholstomerî (The Strider), whilst people say he is a good
writer...
