Not exactly what you’re looking for, but I want to give you my two cents. Its next on my list after I finish Anna Karenina (more than half way through!). War and Peace is much different, but after reading Anna Karenina, Tolstoy has a new place in my heart. I’ve also read his “The Death of Ivan Illyich”, which I also liked. I only hope to re-learn enough Russian someday to be able to read his work in Russian…I think there is a lot that gets lost in translation. Anna is good, but War and Peace is his crowning glory, so it must be worth a read, especially if you find yourself drawn to Russian lit, right?
