About this product

Product Information

Few would dispute the claim of War and Peace to be regarded as the greatest novel in any language. This massive chronicle, to which Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910) devoted five whole years shortly after his marriage, portrays Russian family life during and after the Napoleonic war. Tolstoy's faith in life and his piercing insight lend universality to a work which holds the mirror up to nature as truly as those of Shakespeare or Homer.

  • Essential Russian novel

    Doorstop-sized paperback, and if you are at all interested in Russian literature, you ought to plough through this complex tale of the Napoleonic wars as seen from the Russian side. There are dreadful, decadent aristocrats, generals of doubtful competence, the well-meaning hero Pierre, slave-like serfs, and Tolstoy's mercilessly portrayed juvenile lead Natasha, possessing no attribute except fluttering prettiness. A prototype Disney princess?
