Download War and Peace, Volume 1 AudioBook Free
"War and Peace" volume 1 is one of the greatest monuments in world literature. Set up against the dramatic backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars, it examines the partnership between the individual and the relentless march of history. Listed below are the universal themes of love and hate, ambition and despair, youth and age, expressed with a swirling vitality making the book as accessible today as it was when it was initially published in 1869. In addition it is, famously, one of the longest books in Western literature and for that reason a exceptional challenge for any reader. Neville Jason read the abridged version of "War and Peace" and proved his marathon powers with his outstanding performance of Proust's "Remembrance of Things Past". These alone make him the perfect person to essay Tolstoy's epic. The recording will set you back 55CDs, some 70 hours, and we have divided it into two volumes. Volume 2 is also available (ISBN 962-634-434-2).
