Matthew Royal reviewed Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy
Review of 'Anna Karenina' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
Finally finished! Maybe I need to read some commentary and analysis on this book, but I found it tedious. It's points didn't seem original to me, although perhaps Tolstoy WAS the first man to recognize the difference in how society treats men and women when they cheat on their spouses. It ended on an oddly "spiritual, but not religious" note that seemed like a random addendum rather than a conclusion to this rambling tale.
Glad I read it, but wish it had been a better experience!
