Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

Excellant snippets over the majority of Tolsstoys writing career. Good biographical info as well. I would recommend it to anyone interested in tolstoys' shorter works.

Tolstoy is too vast for such an anthology,
By Shalom Freedman "Shalom Freedman" (Jerusalem,Israel) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)
This review is from: The Portable Tolstoy (Viking Portable Library) (Paperback)
This anthology contains some of the great writing of one of the greatest of all writers. In this sense it is invaluable.But in another it seems to me to miss the mark. For to break up ' War and Peace' and provide even some of the great passages is to miss the whole sense of the work which is in the presentation of a vast world, a flowing and moving world. It is in this sense seems to me that Tolstoy is not quite suited for an anthology of this type, and that the reader who would give his attention to close to nine- hundred pages should do this to either one of the two great novels, 'War and Peace' or 'Anna Karenina'.
