Do you ever wonder if the greatest novel of all time has been published in the last decade or so but remains completely obscure due to current consumer trends?

Which do you prefer: Anna Karenina or War and Peace?
I enjoyed Dostoevsky and want to read Tolstoy now, but I don't know which book to start with. Does it matter? In my opinion, C&P is the best Dosto book to start with; is there a similar situation with Tolstoy?
I am a slow reader, so this decision feels big to me.
