War and Peace

As Napoleon's armies march toward Moscow, Tolstoy follows five interconnected Russian families through ballrooms, battlefields, and the slow unraveling of the world they thought was permanent. Prince Andrei seeks glory and finds disillusionment; Pierre Bezukhov stumbles from fortune to spiritual crisis; Natasha Rostov grows from a reckless girl into a woman who has survived a war. Love, ambition, and death play out against the largest canvas in Russian literature.

Widely regarded as one of the greatest novels ever written — an epic that never loses sight of the individual human heart inside the sweep of history. Long, demanding, and unforgettable.
