Since we all like 19th Century writing and since no one here is afraid of a long book you may be interested to know......
For the month of October, the NYT is running a special blog on War and Peace. It seems to me to be pretty thoughtful stuff if you have any interest along those lines.
What I am going to do is copy the whole thing and set it aside for when I read the book again.
Note:
We all have our own taste and I am not sure I agree with the new Pevear translation and how it flows. I prefer the Elizabeth Garnett edition ...... but each to his own.
That said here it is.....

are you still reading War and Peace ...? Thought you might like to know that a new group has started up on LibraryThing (for group reads) and the book is being read there at the moment. The link is:
