Tolstoy, Leo

In Tolstoy's masterpiece, the gorgeous Anna Karenina is married to a significant government minister but falls in love with a prosperous army officer named Count Vronsky. Frantic for truth and significance in life, Anna recklessly defies the norms of Russian society, often smoking opium with her lover as she abandons her son and husband. Damned and detested by her peers, Anna finds herself increasingly jealous and unfulfilled.
