Tragedy unfolds as Anna rejects her passionless marriage and must endure the hypocrisies of society. Set against a vast and richly textured canvas of nineteenth-century Russia, the novel's seven major characters create a dynamic imbalance, playing out the contrasts of city and country life and all the variations on love and family happiness.\u003cbr\u003e\n             While previous versions have softened the robust, and sometimes shocking, quality of Tolstoy's writing, Pevear and Volokhonsky  have produced a translation true to his powerful voice. This authoritative edition, which received the PEN Translation Prize and was an Oprah Book Club™ selection, also includes an illuminating introduction and explanatory notes. Beautiful, vigorous, and eminently readable, this \u003ci\u003eAnna Karenina\u003c\/i\u003e will be the definitive text for fans of the film and generations to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTeen \u0026amp; Young Adult\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiterature \u0026amp; Fiction\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eClassics\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Penguin Classics","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":47600897097918,"sku":"0143035002-4","price":15.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/91vQ60zqC9L_66c24f37-5a25-4861-9d8d-7742351951db.jpg?v=1780469107","url":"https:\/\/shop.sustainablebooks.com\/products\/0143035002-anna_karenina_penguin_classics_deluxe_edition","provider":"Sustainable Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
