  • Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy Part 1, Part 2, + Part 3 - Book Summary, Analysis, Review

    Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Is there a more famous book out there? Maybe. This is a book you'll want to read before you die. Krypto and Una are finally diving into this mammoth and performing an in-depth discussion as they work through it. This will cover Anna Karenina Parts 1, 2, and 3! Leo Tolstoy may have been Russia's greatest writer, he may have been their greatest moralist. Any way you look at it, it's hard to compare the themes of love, public and private life, or adultery any closer than how Tolstoy does in this book. While I'm sure everyone will ask "what is the best translation of Anna Karenina", we think you should find the right version for you. Una's copy was translated by Constance Garnett while Krypto read the Pevear and Volokhonsky translation.
