As Napoleon's army invades, Tolstoy vividly follows characters from diverse backgrounds--peasants and nobility, civilians and soldiers--as they struggle with the problems unique to their era, their history, and their culture. And as the novel progresses, these characters transcend their specificity, becoming some of the most moving--and human--figures in world literature. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePevear and Volokhonsky have brought us this classic novel in a translation remarkable for its fidelity to Tolstoy's style and cadence and for its energetic, accessible prose.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VINTAGE","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51578299318562,"sku":"9781400079988-new","price":20.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/4755\/5618\/files\/9781400079988.jpg?v=1777403434","url":"https:\/\/www.albakireads.com\/products\/war-peace-9781400079988-new","provider":"AlbakiReads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
