so when does it get good?
>>24709784page 1. if you get to the part where levin sees kitty skating and compares her to the sun and you're still not convinced then this book isn't for you
>>24709799im at the part where oblonsky meets levin and that's definitely not page 1
Don't listen to this retard >>24709799Skip page 1. Nobody reads the preface.
>>24709802so you're like 10 pages in. get off of here and read.
>>24709807ironically i actually should've done this, it spoiled the story (anna suicides)>>24709827but the prose is so simple and boring...tell me something cool that happens that motivates me to continue reading!
>>24709843BRO SPOILERSThe other dude hasn't finished it lmao
>>24709845Wait nevermind it's you. Teehee~
>>24709845>>24709851dummy...well i don't believe in spoilers that much what matters is the small details
>>24709784What is the point of threads like these? Just put the book down and move on to something else if you don’t get anything out of it. Some people just won’t enjoy this book as with anything.
>>24709827He’s still got sixty or so pages before Anna and Vronsky actually show up. LOL
>>24709843Anna suiciding is a given if you know anything at all about the story beforehand. It’s not something you read for the plot but for the story of how she got there. Of her tragic downfall and of what pushes a woman to do that.
>>24709784All the boring books are boring in the same way, any interesting book is such in its own way.
>>24709843fuck you learn to use spoilers asshole
>>24709784The first line.
Best translation?
>>24709784>so when does it get good?About when the side nigga catch feelings.

>>24709784When you reach Anna's death scene. Great early early use of stream-of-consciousness. The book should've ended there, part 8 was a drag.
>>24710237This, the book could have perfectly started with her suicide and flash backed into how she got there and it would work.
>>24710756Record scratch, freeze frame, you're probably wondering how I got here
>>24710622Pevear and volkhonsky
>>24710683I agree. That stream of consciousness would have been such a mike drop moment
>>24710683So that's the only scene you liked and it's only because of muh technique? The absolute state
