Question

What would be the appropriate title for the imp and the peasant bread

Answer 1

The imp and the peasant's bread is a short story written by Leo Tolstoy.

The appropriate title for the story could have been "Money makes man sin".

Reasoning

- In the story, the devil's acquaintance is an Imp who vows to sin a poor peasant.  

- He had taken the only food of the farmer, a piece of bread and the peasant did not get angry.

- But the imp made the farmer become rich and taught him to prepare alcohol. The farmer called for a party with his friends and drank alcohol and began losing their vices.

- The devil was happy that the Imp had succeeded in making the farmer sin.

- Thus the title relates that evilness is associated with money and wealth and the devil has no work where simplicity exists.  

Hope this helps.
