Summary

Auf dem Sterbebett schaut der schwerkranke Richter Iwan Iljitsch zurück auf sein Leben - mit bitteren Erkenntnissen: Sein Beruf bedeutet ihm nichts, seine Frau und er haben sich auseinandergelebt, all die Vergnügungen mit seinen Freunden erscheinen ihm im Nachhinein als vertane Zeit. Kurz: Er wünschte, er hätte anders gelebt. Isoliert von seiner Familie leidet Iwan psychische und physische Qualen, denen seine Ärzte völlig hilflos gegenüberstehen.

Tolstois Erzählung über den Todeskampf eines desillusionierten Mannes wird vorgetragen von Gert Westphal, dessen Erzählkunst die große Intimität und Sprachgewalt des Textes noch intensiviert.
