Story
Das ist die Geschichte der adligen Familie Karenin, einer dekadenten, in gesellschaftlichen Normen erstarrten Sippe. Die Kälte ihres Gatten treibt die sensible Anna dem wesentlich jüngeren Grafen Wronskij in die Arme. Diese stark sexuell orientierte Beziehung endet im Fiasko. Schließlich richtet Anna sich selbst, aber auch ihren Mann und den Geliebten zugrunde. In der anderen großen Figur des Romans, dem Gutsbesitzer Lewin, hatte sich Tolstoi selbst verewigt. Nach "Krieg und Frieden" war dies der zweite große Roman seines Lebens und begründete damit seinen Weltruhm als Schriftsteller.

Story
Diese Novelle gilt in der Literatur als die "die gewaltigste Sterbegeschichte, die jemals geschrieben wurde". Das Thema des Todes ist das Zentrum, die beklemmend-eindringliche Schilderung dieses Weges zum Tod, die tragische Geschichte eines erfolgreichen Menschen in der Blüte seines Lebens.

Story
Leo Tolstoy was born in 1828 in the Russian province of Tula to a wealthy noble family. As a child, he had private tutors but he showed little interest in any formal education. When he went to the University of Kazan in 1843 to study oriental languages and law, he left without completing his courses. Life now was relaxed and idle but with some writing also taking place. In 1852 ‘Childhood’ was published to immediate success and was followed by ‘Boyhood’ and ‘Youth’. His experience in the army and the horrors he witnessed resulted in ‘The Cossacks’ in 1862 and the trilogy ‘Sevastopol Tales’.
