Anna Karenina - Tolstoy, Leo

Clean, tight, unmarked; rubbing to covers; light wear to edges and corners; age tanned; very small closed tear to upper front edge; colours still bright on cover; spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; A magnificent drama of vengeance, infidelity, and retribution, Anna Karenina portrays the moving story of people whose emotions conflict with the dominant social mores of their time. Sensual, rebellious Anna falls deeply and passionately in love with the handsome Count Vronsky. When she refuses to conduct the discreet affair that her cold, ambitious husband (and Russian high society) would condone, she is doomed. In Anna Karenina, Leo Tolstoy brought to perfection the novel of social realism and crated a masterpiece that bared the Russian soul.
