One of the best books I have ever read. Tolstoy explains and retells an envisioned life of the Russian nobility that stood in the post-Napoleon War era in Russia. The character of Anna Karenina is a compelling account of feminism that is still trying to gain independence in the current society of Russia today. Although, Tolstoy may seem to drag out and beat a few of his philosophies to death in a few of his other books; Anna Karenina is very well written, poignant, and one of the best books I have ever read. Maybe this is because the author Tolstoy was such an inspiring and compelling person. I would love to write a third person narrative, but historically founded book that includes Tolstoy.
My rating: 4.5 out of 5.
