Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy (English) Paperback Book

Description: Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy, Louise Maude, W. Gareth Jones Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description 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 Tolstoys classic work. Publisher Description In 1872 the mistress of a neighbouring landowner threw herself under a train at a station near Tolstoys home. This gave Tolstoy the starting point he needed for composing what many believe to be the greatest novel ever written. In writing Anna Karenina he moved away from the vast historical sweep of War and Peace to tell, with extraordinary understanding, the story of an aristocratic woman who brings ruin on herself.Annas tragedy is interwoven with not only the courtship and marriage of Kitty and Levin but also the lives of many other characters. Rich in incident, powerful in characterization, the novel also expresses Tolstoys ownmoral vision. `The correct way of putting the question is the artists duty, Chekhov once insisted, and Anna Karenina was the work he chose to make his point. It solves no problem, but it is deeply satisfying because all the questions are put correctly.
