Among other things, I was told that Anna Karenina "has a quick interesting story and capsule of Russian history. It will be a perfect build up for "War and Peace"...and then they dramatized it with Granchester's vicar as Prince Bolkonski - thrilling!"
I'm afraid to admit I have no idea what that last bit means, and I certainly won't have time to look into it. I've discovered that Anna Karenina is "a complex novel in eight parts, with more than a dozen major characters, it is spread over more than 800 pages (depending on the translation and publisher), typically contained in two volumes."*
I'm already in over my head and I haven't even started reading.

Hahahaha! That adventure has been cancelled. The library copy won't download onto my e-reader. At some point, I'm sure a copy will fall into my hands. Until then, there are other adventures to be had. Like grocery shopping.
DeleteYay! I mean, Oh too bad.
