War and Peace. Book 2

"War and Peace" — the epic novel by Leo Tolstoy, one of the greatest works of world literature, describes the life of Russian society during the Napoleonic wars. "War and Peace" is a vast picture of life in Russia, taken from all its social strata (from peasants to Emperor Alexander I), and a detailed description of the course of hostilities, and an understanding of human behavior in war, but most importantly — it is a profound philosophical reflection and exploration of life as such — in everyday life, in family, in peacetime, and in war. That is why "War and Peace" can be read and reread throughout life — this novel will never lose its relevance.
