O knihe

Leo Tolstoy\'s tragic Russian love story \"Anna Karenina\" is now the subject of a major new film adaptation from director Joe Wright (\"Atonement, Pride and Prejudice\"). Starring Keira Knightley (\"A Dangerous Method\") as \"Anna Karenina\", Jude Law (\"Sherlock Holmes\") as her husband Alexei, Aaron Johnson (\"Nowhere Boy\") as Count Vronsky, and also starring Matthew McFadyen, Andrea Riseborough and Kelly Macdonald, this dazzling production of \"Anna Karenina\" has been adapted for the screen by legendary playwright Tom Stoppard. This \"Penguin Classics Edition\" is translated by award-winning duo Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky.

Anna Karenina seems to have everything - beauty, wealth, popularity and an adored son. But she feels that her life is empty until the moment she encounters the impetuous officer Count Vronsky. Their subsequent affair scandalizes society and family alike, and soon brings jealousy and bitterness in its wake.

Contrasting with this tale of love and self-destruction is the vividly observed story of Konstantin Levin, a man striving to find contentment and meaning to his life - and also a self-portrait of Tolstoy himself. Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910) spent his youth in wasteful idleness until 1851, when he travelled to the Caucasus and joined the army, fighting in the Crimean war. After marrying in 1862, Tolstoy settled down, managing his estates and writing two of his best-known novels, \"War and Peace (1869)\" and \"Anna Karenina (1878)\".
