Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy
Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina tells the tragic love story of Anna Karenina, a married woman, and the dashing officer Vronsky, set against the backdrop of the happy family life of aristocrats Konstantin Levin and Kitty Shcherbatskaya. This sweeping portrayal of the morals and life of the Russian nobility in St. Petersburg and Moscow during the second half of the 19th century blends philosophical reflections of the author’s alter ego, Levin, with pioneering psychological insights and vivid scenes from peasant life.
