Review of ANNA KARENINA
The title of the novel is *Anna Karenina* written by *Leo Tolstoy.* It was published in 1878. It is a realistic fictional novel set in 19^(th) century Russia. It explores themes like love , marriage , morality It is also considered one of the greatest love story in literature .I personally loved this novel due to its characters , immersive story , realistic feel. The story revolves around two major characters the *Anna* and *Levin.*
The story progresses to Anna and Vronsky’s affair when Vronsky is expected to propose another woman Ekaterina(kitty) whom Vronsky abandons and starts pursuing anna. Levin is in love with kitty but she rejects him hoping to marry Vronsky before he leaves her. Levin hopelessly returns to his life but later he gets married with kitty and they have a son. Levin is an intelligent and interesting man and he is also a very simple person .Anna already had a 8 year old son their love affair scandalises the society and puts anna’s husband in a dreadful position. They were in love for a long time and they also had a daughter. Slowly anna and Vronsky started getting away from each other , anna was kind of banished from the society. In the end anna commits suicide.
CHARACTER ANALYSIS
ANNA:
Anna , a married woman with a 8 year old son seryozha, fell in love with count Vronsky , why? Doesn’t she care about her son , her husband? These questions are in the mind of readers and Tolstoy tries to answer them in the novel but Passionate love doesn’t care about these questions. Anna surely loved her son but we cant say the same for her husband , she surely respected him but there was no or very little love. She may have been forced into the marriage with a 20 year older man but couldn’t she stopped herself from attracting towards Vronsky? She once tried to drive him away for the sake of her son but he kept coming in her way and she drowned in love. I think she was deprived of that kind of love but in the process of getting that love she destroyed seryozha’s ,Karenin’s and her own life. If we compare her to obolonsky , the novels depicts that a woman committing adultery is far worse than a man doing the same , she will be punished for her sins while a man will do whatever he likes and society will not question him but they will banish a woman for this.
EKATERINA:
Kitty was a simple but troubled young women as young women of 18 year old are often troubled. She couldn’t identify true love of levin in the beginning but (I have to write more)
LEVIN:
Konstantin was a man who yearned for a simple life , with a wife and children. The way he loved kitty is the way every man should love unlike Vronsky’s way.
Tolstoy wrote him as an image of himself and I too consider myself similar to this character in few aspects like his social awkwardness, determination to do something that interests him like writing a book on farming but falling out of ideas in the middle , feeling he cannot complete his work due to some other duty then again indulging in it, its just the same as I do sometimes.
