Anna Karenina kept me more interested. In War & Peace Tolstoy spends a lot of time talking about the situation surrounding Napoleon's invasion of Russia, and he also talks about historical determinism a lot. Anna Karenina keeps its focus on the characters in the story, which I preferred.

>>	Anonymous Sat Oct 27 14:48:07 2018 No.11996115 >>11995381 Because it's the length of 5-6 normal novels and it has a lot of characters.

They're both meh. War and Peace spends too much time with Pierre being boring, and Anna Karenina too much time with Levin being boring. Their arcs are too similar. Similarly boring. I liked the Levin and Kitty romance though.

They're both okay books. Honestly, probably equally okay. There are other books that I like a lot more, though.
