About the book

Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace is a vast historical novel set during the Napoleonic Wars and centred on several Russian aristocratic families. Through characters including Pierre Bezukhov, Andrei Bolkonsky and Natasha Rostova, Tolstoy moves between intimate family life and enormous historical events such as the invasion of Russia in 1812. The novel explores love, war, history, free will and the search for meaning while creating one of the most ambitious portraits of human life in world literature.
