Beschreibung
This is an alternate cover edition for ISBN 0553211714.
Anna Karenina was begun in 1873, seven years after the publication of War & Peace, and appeared in installments from 1875-1877. It's one of Tolstoy's masterpieces, written at the height of his power and reflecting almost every aspect of his method and attitudes.
Set in the period following the Emancipation of the Serfs in 1861, a time of intense social change, it's the story of a woman who refuses to be fettered by social conventions, the wife of a government bureaucrat who falls in love with a rich army officer and leaves husband and child for her lover: As Matthew Arnold wrote, "We are not to take 'Anna Karenina' as a work of art; we are to take it as a piece of life."
