Yes, I love it; it is my favorite book. The greatest tale of adventure ever told, by a romantic and a humanist- the very best combination.<br><br>It is a book to read and reflect on in these darkest of times. Martin Luther King Jr espoused:<br><br>"Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that."<br><br>I'm sure King was a fan of War & Peace. <br><br>Its length is reflective of the comprehensiveness of Tolstoy's vision. Grit your teeth and struggle through its first one hundred pages, then gasp in awe as history, high drama, philosophy and romance unfold around you in mesmerising language.
