Synopsis
In Russia's struggle with Napoleon, Tolstoy saw a tragedy that involved all mankind. Greater than a historical chronicle, War and Peace is an affirmation of life itself, `a complete picture', as a contemporary reviewer put it, `of everything in which people find their happiness and greatness, their grief and humiliation'. Tolstoy gave his personal approval to this translation, published here in a new single volume edition, which includes an introduction by Henry Gifford, and Tolstoy's important essay `Some Words about War and Peace'.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In Russia's struggle with Napoleon, Tolstoy saw a tragedy that involved all mankind. Yet while his historical vision ranged beyond national frontiers, his imaginative vision focused, with extraordinary intensity, on the lives of individuals, on the physical reality of human experience and its bewildering complexity. Greater than a historical chronicle, War and Peace is an affirmation of life itself, 'a complete picture', as a contemporary reviewer put it, 'of everything in which people find their happiness and greatness, their grief and humiliation'. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR001548682

Softcover. Condition: Good. Here is a one-volume paperback edition of arguably the greatest novel ever written, in the acclaimed Maude translation. Far more than a historical chronicle of Russia's struggle with Napoleon, War and Peace offers a dazzling array of characters, offering an unmatched portrait of the physical realities of human life, indeed, a complete portrait of the human experience--from happiness and greatness, to grief and humiliation. This new one-volume edition replaces the two paperback volumes in the World's Classics first published in 1983. Seller Inventory # SONG0192833987
