Description
The great Tolstoy epic novel has been miraculously assembled, like an enormous mosaic, out of thousands of scenes—battle, ball, love, domestic, political, philosophical, portrait, landscape, psychological… All of it is not accidental, all is fitting, timely: behind branching plot lines, turns, and intersections stand fate and the author’s will. The rhythm of the novel, drawing in the reader, is tuned to the pulse of living history: it slows down like the reform activity of Speransky; it speeds up like the comet of 1812; it is calm like Kutuzov in Fili; it is methodical like the people’s club; and it is irreversible like the flight of the French along the road to Smolensk… All these scenes, intertwining, form the most famous work of classical Russian literature—“War and Peace” remains the most published novel in all countries.
