Wow! Je sens que cette lecture et ses personnages vont longtemps m’habiter. Ce roman n’est aucunement surévalué, et mérite sa qualité de chef d’œuvre. La plume, le réalisme des personnages, la profondeur des réflexions, le développement des intrigues, tout, absolument tout est impeccablement mis en récit.

Highly enjoyable, even though I found myself skimming some passages from time to time.
One of the things I arguably enjoyed the most was Levin participating in the hay harvest and loosing himself in the act of scything for 10 or so pages.
I didn't know how Anna's Story would end beforehand, so her suicide by train came as a mild surprise.
I must confess that while I didn't really care for Levin's self-debates concerning him finding his lack of faith disturbing, they weren't to bothersome to read.
Once I read this again, it will be interesting to see how the moderately old german translation that I read this time around differs from the english translation.

I loved this book. It was romantic, operatic, and heart-wrenching. The characters are vivid and nuanced which makes them seem real. I fell in love with Russia.
