Translated by Louise and Aylmer Maude. Introduction and Notes by E.B. Greenwood, University of Kent.

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

Tolstoy considered this book to be his first real attempt at a novel form, and it addresses the very nature of society at all levels,- of destiny, death, human relationships and the irreconcilable contradictions of existence. It ends tragically, and there is much that evokes despair, yet set beside this is an abounding joy in life's many ephemeral pleasures, and a profusion of comic relief.

More than just a tale of battlefield glory or high society intrigue, War and Peace is a profound meditation on human resilience, the nature of power, and the eternal search for meaning.

An immortal saga of history, humanity, and the heart.

Anna Karenina är en mycket vacker kvinna. Hon bor i den ryska staden Sankt Petersburg. Hon är gift och har en son. Hon möter den rike greven Vronskij och blir förälskad. Men om hon lämnar sin man kanske hon förlorar sin älskade son.

Anna Karenina är en av världens mest kända kärleksromaner. Leo Tolstoj skrev den i slutet av 1800-talet. Nu har Johan Werkmäster skrivit om den till lättläst svenska.

The epic Tolstoy novel. Probably the greatest novel of all time.

His masterpieces War and Peace and Anna Karenina stand, in their scope, breadth and vivid depiction of 19th-century Russian life, at the very peak of realist fiction... Vasily Vasilyevich Vereshchagin (Russian: Васи́лий Васи́льевич Вереща́гин, October 26, 1842 – April 13, 1904) was one of the most famous Russian war artists and one of the first Russian artists to be widely recognized abroad. The graphic nature of his realist scenes led many of them to never be printed or exhibited... Aylmer Maude (28 March 1858 – 25 August 1938) and Louise Maude (1855–1939) were English translators of Tolstoy''s works, and Aylmer Maude also wrote his friend Tolstoy''s biography.
