Our titular character, Anna Karenina, is a beautiful and vivacious woman who wants for nothing, but her life still feels empty. When she meets the handsome officer, Count Vronsky, her passionless marriage falls by the wayside as she throws herself into a tumultous love affair. Their doomed romance is set against the rich backdrop of nineteenth-century Russia, and juxtaposed by the novel's other characters who experience the highs and lows of love, family, faith, and ambition."
