Sinopse

"Anna Karenina" stands as one of Leo Tolstoy's literary masterpieces, encapsulating the complexities of love, morality, and societal norms in 19th-century Russia. This premium edition offers two unabridged translations, allowing readers to appreciate the nuanced differences in language and interpretation that enrich Tolstoy's intricate narrative. The novel intertwines the tragic love story of Anna and Count Vronsky with the parallel life of Konstantin Levin, exploring themes of faith, family, and the search for happiness in a morally ambiguous world. Tolstoy's rich prose, characterized by its philosophical depth and psychological insight, invites readers into a vivid tapestry of Russian society, exposing the contradictions and tensions that define human experience. Leo Tolstoy, a prominent figure of the literary world and a profound thinker, infused his personal struggles and beliefs into his writing. Influenced by his own experiences with love, existential questioning, and spiritual awakening, Tolstoy aimed to dissect the human condition. His exploration of social conventions and earnest reflections on life resonate deeply throughout "Anna Karenina," making it not just a narrative but a societal critique. This edition is a must-read for anyone seeking a deep, immersive experience of Tolstoy'Äôs exploration of love and society. Whether you are a first-time reader or revisiting this classic, the dual translations provide an enriching opportunity to engage with one of literature's essential works and immerse yourself in the philosophical inquiries that continue to challenge readers today.

    Adeline Virginia Woolf was born on the 25th January 1882 in South Kensington in London. 
    Although lauded as a founder of modernist writing with such classics as ‘Orlando’, ‘Mrs Dalloway’ and ‘To the Lighthouse’ and, of course, many classic short stories, her background is filled with elements of tragedy that she somehow overcame to become such a revered writer.   Her mother died when she was 13, her half-sister Stella two years later and with it her first of several nervous breakdowns.  Appallingly it was later found that three of her half-brothers had sexually abused her so darkness must have seemed ever present.   
    She began writing professionally at age 20 but her father’s death two years later brought a complete mental collapse and she was briefly institutionalised.  Somehow she found within herself a literary career and with it great innovations in writing; she was a pioneer of “stream of consciousness”.    
    Her tight circle of friends were the founders of the Bloomsbury Group, a movement whose legacy still influences across the arts and society in many way to this day.   
    Whilst the dark periods continued to interrupt her emotional state her rate of work never ceased.  Until, on 28th March 1941, Woolf put on her overcoat, filled up its pockets with stones, and walked into the River Ouse, in Lewes, East Sussex and drowned herself.  Her body was not recovered until the 18th April.  She was 59. 
    She left behind a note which read in part “Dearest, I feel certain that I am going mad again.  I feel we can't go through another of those terrible times.  And I shan't recover this time.  I begin to hear voices, and I can't concentrate.  So I am doing what seems the best thing to do”.
