Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a brilliant chronicle of the Russian aristocracy on the eve of Napoleon's invasion. Our story begins with a social gathering in the mansion of Anna Pavlovna Scherer, a woman with an uncanny ability to read the hearts of those in her social set and predict the actions of some of Russia's most powerful figures. At the heart of the novel is Pierre Bezukhov, an awkward and kind-hearted young man whose search for meaning in his life will form an anchor for the many subplots and events that will follow. The author paints a vivid fresco of Russian high society through Pierre's eyes, mirroring their concerns over Napoleon's growing power and Russia's place in the world, but also illuminating their human qualities, vanities, and fears. This book is a classic of historical fiction that will dazzle readers with its timeless insights, vividness, and scope.
