THE ACCLAIMED TRANSLATION BY RICHARD PEVEAR AND LARISSA VOLOKHONSKY n n If youve never read it, now is the moment. This translation will show that you dont read War and Peace, you live it The Times n n From sophisticated Moscow soirees to breathless troika rides through the snow, from the bloody front line at Austerlitz to a wifes death in childbirth, Tolstoy conjures a broad panorama of rich, messy, beautiful and debased human life. We follow the fates of open-hearted, impulsive Pierre Bezukhov, his melancholy friend Prince Andrei and the enchanting Natasha Rostov, as history and fiction are combined in one of the wisest and most enthralling novels ever written. n n `A joy to read... The sense of actually being in the skin of these people is phenomenally, brilliantly rendered by this translation Simon Schama n n n The Vintage Classic Russians Series: Published for the 100th anniversary of the 1917 Russian Revolution, these are must-have, beautifully designed editions of six epic masterpieces that have survived controversy, censorship and suppression to influence decades of thought and artistic expression. n
