Russian Books - Classics

War and Peace Review : Amazing! Long! The only choice is which edition you buy. Set during Russia's wars with Napoleon and the peace times in between, including the famous war of 1812. This book is not a normal novel. It follow no particular form or style. It does exactly as it wants. I think Leo Tolstoy's greatest skill is creating the most real characters. "There remains the greatest of all novelists, for what else can we call the author of War and Peace?" --Virginia Woolf

Read it here "it is a smoothly flowing and fascinating story of a young man who succumbs to the most base desire, and the impact this has both psychologically and otherwise on himself and those around him." --Reviewer at Amazon.
