Ana Karenjina I-II

Ana Karenjina I-II

Lav Nikolajevič Tolstoj

The novel that Dostoevsky considered flawless and Faulkner called the best novel ever written, is Leo Tolstoy's monumental work that provides a comprehensive account of nineteenth-century Russian society.

The novel "Anna Karenina" was declared the greatest love story of all time, and its author, Count Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy, the greatest Russian novelist (V. Nabokov). All those who did not read about the adultery and passion of Mrs. Karenina and the free Vronsky did so in a series of film adaptations.

Scholars, critics and fans have sought to answer the question of what makes the love of these two literary characters so special among thousands of others. If there was an answer, Count Tolstoy probably shouldn't even have picked up a pen at his estate in Jasna Poljana. However, one of the answers was that world literature, until then, did not take into account the selfishness and sexuality of love, which, by destroying social conventions, leads to the self-destruction of one or both lovers.

In the great Russian realist novel, Tolstoy started a kind of sexual revolution with "Anna Karenina". In it, a woman, unlike, for example, Flaubert's Emma Bovary, became for the first time a being who has the right to seek physical satisfaction.
