Anna is a sophisticated woman who abandons her empty existence as a wife and turns to her lover Count Vronsky to fulfil her passionate nature -with tragic consequences.

Author Bio
Count Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910) published Anna Karenina in 1877. His other works include The Sebastopol Sketches (1855), War and Peace (1869) and A Confession (1879-82). He also involved himself in the running of peasant schools on his estates and the emancipation of the serfs. His works earned him numerous followers in Russia and abroad. Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky have translated Bulgakov's The Master and Margarita for Penguin.
