Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace, one of the great achievements of world literature, is now available as an Audiobook in a Card, offering a thoughtful way to gift a timeless classic.
Combining rich historical detail with deep insights into love, fate, and human nature, War and Peace is a sweeping epic that explores the fortunes of Russian families during the Napoleonic Wars. The fates of the Rostovs and the Bolkonskys are intimately connected with the national history that is played out in parallel with their lives. Balls and soirées alternate with councils of war and the machinations of statesmen and generals, scenes of violent battles with everyday human passions in a work whose extraordinary imaginative power has never been surpassed.
The prodigious cast of characters seem to act and move as if connected by threads of destiny as the novel relentlessly questions ideas of free will, fate, and providence.
First published in the nineteenth century, War and Peace brin
