 War and Peace (Russian Война и мир, Voyna i mir) is an extraordinary epic by Leo Tolstoy, first published between 1865 and 1869 in Russki Vestnik.

Often hailed as one of Tolstoys masterpieces—alongside Anna Karenina—it stands as one of the greatest novels in literary history. War and Peace redefined the narrative landscape, intertwining the lives of numerous characters against the backdrop of monumental themes like war, peace, youth, age, and marriage. Although regarded as a novel today, its groundbreaking approach challenged the conventions of its time, leading many critics to hesitate in classifying it as such.
