Features: From 1873 to 1877, Tolstoy revised the monumental work "Anna Karenina" twelve times, and his novelistic art reached its peak. "Anna Karenina" was first serialized in "The Russian Messenger" from 1875, and a standalone edition was published in 1878. This book has been translated into multiple languages and published in many countries around the world. There are several Chinese translations, such as the 1950 edition translated by Zhou Jian from the Joint Publishing House, the 1956 edition translated by Zhou Yang from the People's Literature Publishing House, and the 1982 edition translated by Cao Ying from the Shanghai Translation Publishing House. The beautiful prose, meticulous narrative style, grandeur, and introspection on human nature, along with the creative charm of "sincerity" and the concept of "love," are exceptionally well embodied in "Anna Karenina." This monumental work transcends the boundaries of literature, spans time and space to guide us in contemplating the meaning of life, and grasps the essence of life's truth, goodness, and beauty. The protagonist, Anna Karenina, is one of the most moving female characters in Russian literature and one of the most beautiful and well-developed female characters in the history of world literature. She captivates readers with her profound inner experiences, sincere emotions, vibrant vitality, and tragic fate.
