War and Peace Details
Often called the greatest novel ever written, War and Peace is at once an epic of the Napoleonic wars, a philosophical study, and a celebration of the Russian spirit. Tolstoy's genius is clearly seen in the multitude of characters in this massive chronicle, all of them fully realized and equally memorable. Out of this complex narrative emerges a profound examination of the individual's place in the historical process, one that makes it clear why Thomas Mann praised Tolstoy for his Homeric powers and placed War and Peace in the same category as The Iliad. War and Peace was translated by Constance Garnett.

This is NOT what it is supposed to be. Most American readers would not notice, but this is the Maud's translation, not Lady Garnett's as shown in the picture. Shame on you Amazon for the deception. Note to Tolstoy readers: all translations are NOT the same...
