I second this ...

... Now read this! Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina.

I consider the time I spent reading Anna Karenina as one of the most intensely alive periods of my life.

    I agree. And I also loved "War and Peace" when I finally read that a couple of summers ago (the Briggs translation). At least, I loved it right up until the end when L.T. began analyzing Napoleon and military history...That seemed like a completely separate monograph, meant to be published in an academic journal!
