Further DetailsTitle: Anna Karenina Condition: New Description: 'One of the greatest love stories in world literature' Vladimir Nabokov The heroine of Tolstoy's epic of love and self-destruction, Anna Karenina has beauty, wealth, popularity and an adored son, but feels that her life is empty until she encounters the impetuous officer Count Vronsky. Their subsequent affair scandalizes society and family alike, and brings jealousy and bitterness in its wake. Contrasting with this is the vividly observed story of Levin, a man striving to find contentment and a meaning to his life - and also a self-portrait of Tolstoy himself. This award-winning translation has been acclaimed as the definitive English version of Tolstoy's masterpiece.Translated by RICHARD PEVEAR and LARISSA VOLOKHONSKY with a Preface by JOHN BAYLEY Author: Leo Tolstoy Contributor: Larissa Volokhonsky (Translated by), Richard Pevear (Introduction by), Richard Pevear (Translated by), John Bayley (Preface by) EAN: 9780140449174 ISBN: 9780140449174 Format: Paperback Item Height: 198mm ISBN-10: 0140449175 Country/Region of Manufacture: GB Genre: Fiction Publisher: Penguin Classics Release Date: 01/30/2003 Language: Russian, English Item Length: 129mm Item Width: 36mm Item Weight: 585g Translator: Larissa Volokhonsky, Richard Pevear Topic: Classic Fiction Type: Literary Theory & Movements Release Year: 2003 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
