Peru Nikolai Semyonovich Leskov belongs to the tale "Levsha". In 1881 this work was written and published. Lefty quickly became popular. Many appreciated this work. It has become very popular with readers.
Lefty is at the head of the story. This is a little peasant who has great talent. On instructions from higher officials, the left-hander was able to shoe an iron flea, which was created by English masters. The author wanted to show the reader that Russian talent is stronger than English scholarship. This is the first advantage of the left-hander. The master is a collective image of the Russian people.
The problem with writing is that talented people like the left-hander cannot learn. The country suffers from this, because talents are lost. Also, the lack of prospects leads to drunkenness. This disadvantage characterizes not only the left-handed person, but also many craftsmen. Ordinary people always live badly.
Lefty, despite drunkenness, does not lose talent. Sloppy appearance, simplicity of soul - these are not the minuses of the left-hander, but the problem of society. We can safely say that the left-hander would be even better if the state paid attention to the problems of ordinary people.
We can say that all vices come not from a person, but from a government that ignores the fate and life of ordinary people. Lack of freedom, lack of opportunities to learn - all this leads to the fall of a person. The talented left-hander turned out to be alone, he died stupidly. Many reproached the character for drunkenness, but do not forget about the conditions of his life, which formed such a situation. Still, the left-hander is a worthy character who, through his work, has earned the respect of readers.
