description: "Kholstomer", also translated as "Strider", was started by Leo Tolstoy in 1863 and left unfinished until 1886, when it was reworked and published as "Kholstomer: The Story of a Horse". It is told almost entirely from the animals' point of view. The story centers upon this animal, an aged, battered horse who, Tolstoy stipulates, remains “majestic” despite his advanced age and "ugliness".
