  War and Peace is a literary work mixed with chapters on history and philosophy by the Russian author Leo Tolstoy. It was first published serially, then published in its entirety in 1869. It is regarded as one of Tolstoy's finest literary achievements and remains an internationally praised classic of world literature.
  Second Epilogue: History is the life of nations and of humanity. To seize and put into words, to describe directly the life of humanity or even of a single nation, appears impossible. The ancient historians all employed one and the same method to describe and seize the apparently elusive the life of a people. They described the activity of individuals who ruled the people, and regarded the activity of those men as representing the activity of the whole nation.

  The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka is a haunting and thought-provoking novella that delves into themes of alienation, identity, and the human condition. The story begins with Gregor Samsa, a traveling salesman, waking up one morning to find himself transformed into a giant insect. This surreal event triggers a cascade of personal and familial upheavals as Gregor struggles to adapt to his new reality.As Gregor's condition isolates him from society and his family, Kafka masterfully explores the fragility of human relationships and the burden of societal expectations. The novella's sparse, yet evocative prose immerses readers in a world where the absurd becomes a lens for examining profound existential questions.The Metamorphosis remains one of the most celebrated works of modernist literature, offering a timeless exploration of the boundaries of humanity, the nature of compassion, and the search for meaning in an indifferent world.
