Believe it or not, I really enjoyed reading Tolstoy's War And Peace. I started reading it a few years ago with much trepidation because of its great length. However, it turned out to be very easy to read (once you got used to the Russian names) because of the great quality of writing. However, Tolstoy blew it at the end with his dopey theories of history. He actually claimed that the French would have marched to Moscow even if Napoleon had never existed because of some mysterious force of history. Dopey.

I remember reading Doesteski's (sp?) Crime & Punishment back in college prep English in H.S. 25 years ago. I remember being one of the few who really enjoyed it at the time. Lately I've really been into reading the classics.
