Without spoiling it, Leo Tolstoy’s short story ‘Master and Man’ is a great short story with a moving encapsulation of the heart of EA.
You can read it here:https://www.gutenberg.org/files/986/986-h/986-h.htm
I also highly recommend George Saunders’ essay that accompanies the story in his fantastic book A Swim in a Pond in the Rain, titled ‘And yet they drove on’.
