Aloha Everyone,
Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina can be downloaded for free through Gutenberg.org.
Easy to remember the main characters, but the supporting ones was like reading something new. It’s a long book.
I decided to set aside the book to watch a recent Russian miniseries on YouTube. Magnificent costumes and good presentation with a captivating beginning. I watched the first episode last night in Russian with English subtitles. Recognizing a couple of simple Chinese dialogues enhanced my enjoyment. This will surely be a combination of language studies with historical events and masterful story telling.
