There is so much to take from this book, I think each person in the book group interpreted characters and themes slightly differently. It was a very interesting chat. Who amongst us understood Anna... what would we have done in her shoes.. who liked Levin.. opinions on kitty and dolly... not to mention, who would have fallen for Vronsky! It was also very interesting get a snapshot of what it might have been like in high society Russia at that time. Interesting.. but at the same time, the level of detail could be boring. If 'Interesting but boring' makes sense?! We all found it a tough slog reading it but most of us felt an achievement on finishing it and that we would remember and draw from it for a long time. It is a book that stays with you. No need to mention the skill in the writing, this is Tolstoy.. enough said.
