The Poet of Tolstoy Park is the 2005 debut novel of Sonny Brewer, published by Ballantine.[1] The novel, inspired by the life of Henry Stuart, who moved from Idaho to Alabama in the 1920s after being told incorrectly that he had a year to live, has made Stuart's Alabama home a site of pilgrimage for its readers. The book has been optioned for a film and as of 2007 was in pre-production.
