War and Peace – Tolstoy's epic masterpiece intertwines the lives of private and public individuals during the time of the Napoleonic wars and the French invasion of Russia. The fortunes of the Rostovs and the Bolkonskys, of Pierre, Natasha, and Andrei, are intimately connected with the national history that is played out in parallel with their lives. Balls and soirées alternate with councils of war and the machinations of statesmen and generals, scenes of violent battles with everyday human passions in a work whose extraordinary imaginative power has never been surpassed. The prodigious cast of characters, both great and small, seem to act and move as if connected by threads of destiny as the novel relentlessly questions ideas of free will, fate, and providence. Yet Tolstoy's portrayal of marital relations and scenes of domesticity is as truthful and poignant as the grand themes that underlie them.

Anna Karenina – The heroine of Tolstoy's epic of love and self-destruction, Anna Karenina has beauty, wealth, popularity and an adored son, but feels that her life is empty until she encounters the impetuous officer Count Vronsky. Their subsequent affair scandalizes society and family alike, and brings jealousy and bitterness in its wake. Contrasting with this is the vividly observed story of Levin, a man striving to find contentment and a meaning to his life - and also a self-portrait of Tolstoy himself.

Resurrection – It tells the story of a nobleman's attempt to redeem the suffering his youthful philandering inflicted on a peasant girl who ends up a prisoner in Siberia. Tolstoy's vision of redemption, achieved through loving forgiveness and his condemnation of violence, dominate the novel. An intimate, psychological tale of guilt, anger, and forgiveness, Resurrection is at the same time a panoramic description of social life in Russia at the end of the nineteenth century, reflecting its author's outrage at the social injustices of the world in which he lived.

Well worth the read!

Leo Tolstoy is amazing as always and is worth the read. This compilation does not diminish the maneuverability between books and the narrators are Fine. They do not have much personality but have enough to make the story seem alive. Bravo!

Excellent narrators for all especially for war and peace and Anna Karenina. Good enunciation, emphasis and no mouth clicker

Great collection. I find myself coming back to the stories from Leo Tolstoy. Sometimes it feels like he’s the only one that understands me…

Legendary author, flawless narrations.

I really enjoy Tolstoy's straightforward storytelling. He doesn't try to hide his content with a lot of verbiage. Some of the stories have huge casts of characters, but they become more and more familiar as you read/listen over and over. Although there are some obscure novellas that didn't make the collection, it is by far the largest set I've found and a steal for the price. Considering all the wars still going on in the areas described in these stories, Tolstoy is as relevant today as ever.
