War + Peace + Ipod
I am quite fond of Russian Literature, Dostoevsky, Turgenev and the likes, but have never read a Tolstoy book. I have made several attempts at War and Peace, but I find that the book itself is a bit of a barrier for me. Besides its size, the fact that the book has become so iconic makes it a bit of a cliche to be seen in public with, so many of my attempts at the book have been made in the small amount of time I spend at home. Recently I purchased an ipod touch, which has a free app which will download literature from www.gutenberg.org and display them as e-books. I loaded it up last night with all my faves, and plan to use it to try to put away this Russian tome once and for all. Will post a review once my mind has consumed it.
