Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy (Penguin Classics International Edition)

Regarded by Vladimir Nabokov as 'One of the greatest love stories in world literature,' Anna Karenina is Leo Tolstoy's epic novel exploring themes of love, self-destruction, and the search for meaning. This edition features the acclaimed translation by Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky.

The narrative contrasts the tragic affair between the beautiful and socially prominent Anna Karenina and the impetuous Count Vronsky—an affair that scandalizes society—with the parallel story of Levin, a man striving to find contentment and purpose, often viewed as a self-portrait of Tolstoy himself.
