But there is no doubt that Anna Karenina, generally considered Tolstoy's best book, is definitely one ripping great read. Anna, miserable in her loveless marriage, does the barely thinkable and succumbs to her desires for the dashing Vronsky. I don't want to give away the ending, but I will say that 19th-century Russia doesn't take well to that sort of thing.]]> 85 4.01 57195 6764 1873 0 0 false Wed Feb 11 10:13:42 -0800 2009 Wed Jun 10 09:37:10 -0700 2009
