War and Peace

Leo Tolstoy

The Rostov holiday scene gives a voice to the atmosphere of happiness and love; Pierre’s encounter with a Mason gives shared truth-seeking a religious image. Read the different voices in the Aylmer and Louise Maude translation. The checked electronic edition does not identify its underlying print publisher.
