The official movie tie-in to the major motion picture starring Keira Knightly, Jude Law, Emily Watson, and Aaron Johnson, directed by Joe Wright. This ebook edition also includes the screenplay by Tom Stoppard. Leo Tolstoy’s classic story of doomed love is one of the most admired novels in world literature. Generations of readers have been enthralled by his magnificent heroine, the unhappily married Anna Karenina, and her tragic affair with dashing Count Vronsky. In their world frivolous liaisons are commonplace, but Anna and Vronsky’s consuming passion makes them a target for scorn and leads to Anna’s increasing isolation. The heartbreaking trajectory of their relationship contrasts sharply with the colorful swirl of friends and family members who surround them, especially the newlyweds Kitty and Levin, who forge a touching bond as they struggle to make a life together. Anna Karenina is a masterpiece not only because of the unforgettable woman at its core and the stark drama of her fate, but also because it explores and illuminates the deepest questions about how to live a fulfilled life.

Includes a new forward by the screenwriter Mary Bing In Anton Chekhov’s The Duel the escalating animosity between two men with opposed philosophies of life is played out against the backdrop of a seedy resort on the Black Sea coast. Laevsky is a dissipated romantic given to gambling and flirtation; he has run off with another man’s wife, the beautiful but vapid Nadya, and now finds himself tiring of her. The scientist von Koren is contemptuous of Laevsky; as a fanatical devotee of Darwin, von Koren believes the other man to be unworthy of survival and is further enraged by his treatment of Nadya. As the confrontation between the two becomes increasingly heated, it leads to a duel that is as comically inadvertent as it is inevitable. Masterfully translated by the award-winnning Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, The Duel is one of the most subtle examples of Chekhov’s narrative art.
A famous legend surrounding the creation of "Anna Karenina" tells us that Tolstoy began writing a cautionary tale about adultery and ended up falling in love with his magnificent heroine. It is rare to find a reader of the book who doesn't experience the same kind of emotional upheaval. Anna Karenina is filled with major and minor characters who exist in their own right and fully embody their mid-nineteenth-century Russian milieu, but it still belongs entirely to the woman whose name it bears, whose portrait is one of the truest ever made by a writer.

Movie tie-in edition of the dark, satirical thriller by the bestselling Japanese author, following the perilous train ride of five highly motivated assassins—soon to be a major film from Sony starring Brad Pitt, Joey King, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Brian Tyree Henry, Andrew Koji, Hiroyuki Sanada, Michael Shannon, and Benito A Martínez Ocasio, and more Satoshi—The Prince—looks like an innocent schoolboy but is really a stylish and devious assassin. Risk fuels him, as does a good philosophical debate, such as questioning: Is killing really wrong? Kimura’s young son is in a coma thanks to The Prince, and Kimura has tracked him onto a bullet train heading from Tokyo to Morioka to exact his revenge. But Kimura soon discovers that they are not the only dangerous passengers on board. Nanao, also nicknamed Ladybug, the self-proclaimed “unluckiest assassin in the world,” is put on the bullet train by his boss, a mysterious young woman called Maria, to steal a suitcase full of money and get off at the first stop. The lethal duo of Tangerine and Lemon are also traveling to Morioka, and the suitcase leads others to show their hands. Why are they all on the same train, and who will make it off alive? A bestseller in Japan, Bullet Train is an original and propulsive thriller that fizzes with incredible energy as its complex net of double-crosses and twists unwinds up to the last station.

"Anna Karenina" by Leo Tolstoy in Russian.
Im Hause der Oblonskiy herrschte allgemeine Verwirrung. Die Dame des Hauses hatte in Erfahrung gebracht, daß ihr Gatte mit der im Hause gewesenen französischen Gouvernante ein Verhältnis unterhalten, und ihm erklärt, sie könne fürderhin nicht mehr mit ihm unter einem Dache bleiben. Diese Situation währte bereits seit drei Tagen und sie wurde nicht allein von den beiden Ehegatten selbst, nein auch von allen Familienmitgliedern und dem Personal aufs Peinlichste empfunden. Sie alle fühlten, daß in ihrem Zusammenleben kein höherer Gedanke mehr liege, daß die Leute, welche auf jeder Poststation sich zufällig träfen, noch enger zu einander gehörten, als sie, die Glieder der Familie selbst, und das im Hause geborene und aufgewachsene Gesinde der Oblonskiy. Die Herrin des Hauses verließ ihre Gemächer nicht, der Gebieter war schon seit drei Tagen abwesend. Die Kinder liefen wie verwaist im ganzen Hause umher, die Engländerin schalt auf die Wirtschafterin und schrieb an eine Freundin, diese möchte ihr eine neue Stellung verschaffen, der Koch hatte bereits seit gestern um die Mittagszeit das Haus verlassen und die Köchin, sowie der Kutscher hatten ihre Rechnungen eingereicht. Am dritten Tage nach der Scene erwachte der Fürst Stefan Arkadjewitsch Oblonskiy — Stiwa hieß er in der Welt — um die gewöhnliche Stunde, das heißt um acht Uhr morgens, aber nicht im Schlafzimmer seiner Gattin, sondern in seinem Kabinett auf dem Saffiandiwan. Er wandte seinen vollen verweichlichten Leib auf den Sprungfedern des Diwans, als wünsche er noch weiter zu schlafen, während er von der andern Seite innig ein Kissen umfaßte und an die Wange drückte. Plötzlich aber sprang er empor, setzte sich aufrecht und öffnete die Augen.

It ends tragically, and there is much that evokes despair, yet set beside this is an abounding joy in life's many ephemeral pleasures, and a profusion of comic relief.
