It is as honest and forthright as they come and will make everyone who reads it reconsider all there assumptions about everything. I've tried to start Anna Karenina twice before (prior to reading Resurrection) and I've started it again...it now makes sense. Both Karenina and "War and Peace" express the same ideas as "Resurrection", but more subtly. I guess Tolstoy got tired of people "not getting it" and decided to just hit them between the eyes with "Resurrection". I can’t encourage everyone strongly enough to read this book.
