Review of 'Anna Karenina' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
An intriguing foray into nineteenth century Russian culture — but perhaps more interestingly, an unsettlingly relatable set of interwoven fables in parallel. Highly recommended, though be sure you find a good translation before beginning.
Be prepared to spend a few weeks on this.
