5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent - as expected, October 2, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: La Geurre Et La Paix: v. 2 (French Edition) (Mass Market Paperback)
I'm not going to attempt to review Tolstoy. However, I would like to point out that War and Peace is probably his most extraordinary novel, and I highly recommend it for readers aging 45 and above. It is not for the ones in a hurry. It is a sublime pleasure that is prolonged all along the 2000 pages of both volumes of the novel.
For those of you who love literature, he's as good as it gets. I've heard people say that Tolstoy 'describes too much'. Not the case. I never found a 'page filling description', one that is not really sublime and fully contributes in the context
of the narration.
For those of you who like reading in French, this edition is an excellent choice.
(Note that this is volume 2)
