Anna Karenina is one of the most loved and memorable heroines of literature. Her overwhelming charm dominates a novel of unparalleled richness and density.

'The greatest love story I've ever read' Andrew Davies • Anna Karenina is a novel of unparalleled richness and complexity, set against the backdrop of Russian high society. Tolstoy charts the course of the doomed love affair between Anna, a beautiful married woman, and Count Vronsky, a wealthy army officer who pursues Anna after becoming infatuated with her at a ball. Although she initially resists his charms Anna eventually succumbs, falling passionately in love and setting in motion a chain of events that lead to her downfall. In this extraordinary novel Tolstoy seamlessly weaves together the lives of dozens of characters, while evoking a love so strong that those who experience it are prepared to die for it

Leo Tolstoy's most personal novel, Anna Karenina scrutinizes fundamental ethical and theological questions through the tragic story of its eponymous heroine. Anna is desperately pursuing a good, "moral" life, standing for honesty and sincerity. Passion drives her to adultery, and this flies in the face of the corrupt Russian bourgeoisie. Meanwhile, the aristocrat Konstantin Levin is struggling to reconcile reason with passion, espousing a Christian anarchism that Tolstoy himself believed in

The heroine of Tolstoy's epic of love and self-destruction, Anna Karenina has beauty, wealth, popularity and an adored son, but feels that her life is empty until she encounters the impetuous officer Count Vronsky. Their subsequent affair scandalizes society and family alike, and brings jealousy and bitterness in its wake. Contrasting with this is the vividly observed story of Levin, a man striving to find contentment and a meaning to his life - and also a self-portrait of Tolstoy himself. This award-winning translation has been acclaimed as the definitive English version of Tolstoy's masterpiece

В романе «Анна Каренина» отразилась со всеми подробностями российская действительность 1870-х годов. Текст вобрал в себя не только приметы времени и характеры персонажей, созданные Л. Н. Толстым на основе многих и многих прототипов, - писатель внес в роман очень много автобиографического, пережитого им самим. Работая над романом, Толстой не вел дневников. «Я все написал в „Анне Карениной“, - говорил он, - и ничего не осталось» • Книга на английском языке • Anna is a beautiful, intelligent woman whose passionate affair with the dashing Count Vronsky leads her to ruin. But her story is also about a search for meaning, and by twinning it with that of Levin, an awkward idealist whose happy marriage and domestic trials form the backdrop for a similar quest, Tolstoy creates a rich and complex masterpiece that has captured the imagination of readers for decades

Obra cumbre de Lev Tolstoi (junto a Anna Karenina) y de la narrativa del XIX, Guerra y paz constituye un vasto fresco historico y epico. Con la campana napoleonica -Austerlitz, Borodino o el incendio de Moscu- como trasfondo, se narra la historia de dos familias de la nobleza rusa, los Bolkonski y los Rostov, protagonistas de un mundo que empieza a escenificar su propia desaparicion. Hasta hace pocos anos, todas las traducciones de Guerra y paz se basaban en la edicion canonica de 1873. Sin embargo, en 1983, la Academia Sovietica de Ciencias publico lo que ellos llamaron la «edicion original», es decir, la primera version que Tolstoi escribio en 1866. Es la esplendida traduccion de ese manuscrito original, de la mano de Gala Arias Rubio, la que publicamos en este volumen
