Product details

War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy is an epic novel set against the backdrop of Napoleon’s invasion of Russia in the early 19th century. The story intricately weaves together the lives of several aristocratic families, primarily focusing on Prince Andrei Bolkonsky, Pierre Bezukhov, and Natasha Rostov.

Prince Andrei, disillusioned with his aristocratic life and unhappy in marriage, joins the Russian army seeking purpose. Pierre, an awkward and idealistic heir, struggles to find meaning and direction in life after inheriting a vast fortune. Natasha, a vibrant and youthful countess, experiences the tumult of love, loss, and growth as she navigates the social upheavals surrounding her.

The novel captures their personal transformations amidst the chaos of war, including the harrowing Battle of Borodino and the French invasion of Moscow. Tolstoy explores the contrast between the brutal realities of conflict and the moral and spiritual growth of his characters.
