Book Comments & Discussion

UnknownAug 2013

Tolstoy's masterpiece is much more than a tragic love story. The novel shows what life was like in 19th century Russia from the point of view of several different men and women from various social classes. The content is so rich and the characters are unforgettable.

Storyline

One of the greatest novels ever written, Anna Karenina sets the impossible and destructive triangle of Anna, her husband Karenin, and her lover Vronsky against the marriage of Levin and Kitty, thus illuminating the most important questions that face humanity. The second edition uses the acclaimed Louise and Alymer Maude translation, and offers a new introduction and notes which provide completely up-to-date perspectives on Tolstoy's classic work.
