Book Description

Anna Karenina tells of the doomed love affair between the sensuous and rebellious Anna and the dashing officer, Count Vronsky. Tragedy unfolds as Anna rejects her passionless marriage and must endure the hypocrisies of society. Set against a vast and richly textured canvas of nineteenth-century Russia, the novel's seven major characters create a dynamic imbalance, playing out the contrasts of city and country life and all the variations on love and family happiness. While previous versions have softened the robust, and sometimes shocking, quality of Tolstoy's writing, Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky have produced a translation true to his powerful voice. This award-winning team's authoritative edition also includes an illuminating introduction and explanatory notes. Beautiful, vigorous, and eminently readable, this Anna Karenina will be the definitive text for generations to come.

"Pevear and Volokhonsky are at once scrupulous translators and vivid stylists of English, and their superb rendering allows us, as perhaps never before, to grasp the palpability of Tolstoy's 'characters, acts, situations.'" (James Wood, The New Yorker)



About the Author

Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910) wrote two of Russia's greatest novels, War and Peace (1869) and Anna Karenina (1877), as well as many short stories and essays.

2.0étoiles sur 5 A Story about Russia, not about People, Jui 1 2004
I read this book online via Project Gutenberg, while watching code compile in another screen window. The compilation was more interesting.

The problem isn't entirely with the book - I tend to enjoy character driven stories, where you see people grow, change, face conflicts, etc. This wasn't one of those books. This was a millieu-driven story, where you watched society through its impacts on a set of archtypal characters.

If you're OK with that - if you want to understand Russia, or explore some theories of social development - you may rate this book more highly than me. If you're looking for a romance, to see a true love story, this isn't the book.

3.0étoiles sur 5 3.5 stars; a little lengthy but worth the effort, Sep 30 2009
Par Andrea (Ontario, Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
[Cross-posted to LibraryThing and LivingSocial]

I was a little daunted going into Anna Karenina, I thought of it as the ultimate Classic of Classics and Id never read Tolstoy before. So I was pleasantly surprised to find that it defied most of my expectations.

I thought the whole novel was just about Anna Karenina, but it was much more. Yes, it told the tragic story of Annas loveless marriage and her doomed affair with Count Vronsky, but it also told the story of Konstantin Levin and his search for love, for faith, and for satisfaction in his work. In between, Tolstoy manages to work in commentary on family dynamics, societal expectations, the state of Russian agriculture, and the evolving political situation in Russia at the time he was writing.

The novel is long and it is loaded, but it is surprisingly accessible. Tolstoy understands human nature and he writes about it well, the characters here are all complex and have real conflicts that are still very relevant more than a hundred years after they were put to paper. It was a much easier read than I had expected and more engaging. It did get dry at times when Tolstoy went into long dissertations about farming or politics, and sometimes he took thirty pages to describe something that could have been covered in a few paragraphs. But just when I was ready to throw in the towel, the story took off again.

I think some of my enjoyment of the book suffered from the way that I read it, one part a month, and something like this is not very well suited to the summer months. I am planning to give it another go at some point in the winter, when I can curl up in a blanket and read it cover to cover.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Compulsory reading!!!, Avril 12 2007
Par Valerie Crepeau (Montreal, Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Anna Karenina was compulsory for one of my University classes, and I want to deeply thank the professor that made me read this classic love tale. It is wonderfully written by Tolstoy and so deeply touching. Part Four is the best, and the scene where she meets her son for his birthday after not seeing him for so long... it is going to make you cry for sure! Amazing book, a compulsory reading for everyone!
