Considered by some to be the greatest novel ever written, Anna Karenina is Tolstoy's classic tale of love and adultery set against the backdrop of high society in Moscow and Saint Petersburg. A rich and complex masterpiece, the novel charts the disastrous course of a love affair between Anna, a beautiful married woman, and Count Vronsky, a wealthy army officer. Tolstoy seamlessly weaves together the lives of dozens of characters, and in doing so captures a breathtaking tapestry of late-nineteenth-century Russian society. As Matthew Arnold wrote in his celebrated essay on Tolstoy, "We are not to take Anna Karenina as a work of art; we are to take it as a piece of life."

安娜临死之前的心理独白,堪称十九世纪最精彩的心理描写,很难想象托尔斯泰在写这些段落时处于怎样的状态。记述下这些句子的人仿佛是安娜自己,如果把安娜自杀的部分作为全篇小说的高潮的话,那站在这最高点上俯瞰的不是托尔斯泰,而是死神。 死亡的阴影,一直笼罩着整...
评分浮冰下的深河 人的生活就像安排在江面浮冰上的一场筵席,当冰面仍然冻结的时候,每个人都感觉这场筵席是在坚实的地面上进行着,并将永远这样有条不紊的进行下去。只有当冰面澌溶、开裂的时候,人才仿佛忽然发现,原来生活的基础并不是自己想象的那么坚实安稳,一直以来的平稳...
评分我坦白,自己这个网名是来自两个安娜的启发。 一个是大名鼎鼎的卡列宁夫人,一个是契诃夫《脖子上的安娜》里面没有前者出名的安纽达。 两个安娜,就是女人的两种选择。 一个要为了自由和爱情而赴死,一个为了富贵享乐而在现实里堕落,一个死了,一个要活下去。 其实她们都是...
Though some of the ideas and social conventions depicted in the book seem distant and unrelatable to me, I do appreciate the sincerity with which some of the main characters live their lives, and the faith in goodness. The development of Levin is so dear to me that I could hear trumpets blowing and hymns rising at his final epiphany 😭
