War and Peace especially is a transformation and revelation. From the Patriotic War against Napoléon to the era of nineteenth- century radicalism and reform, and then on to the October Revolution, the Communist terror, and the postwar period, the Pevear-Volokhonsky project now surveys a cultural expanse as broad as the Siberian frontier. €�I came running to Larissa”—Larissa Volokhonsky, Pevear's wife of thirty years and collaborator on twenty-one works of Russian-to-English translation—“and said, 'Can that be? I read the Pevear/Volokhonsky translation, and I was absolutely blown away.

As I have already alluded to, abridgements of the work are on the market and I cannot generally .. I have read Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov, and The Idiot, each translated by Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky. What War and Peace is, I suppose, it the biggest and baddest attempt at experimental/historical fiction ever attempted. Translated by Richard Pevear & Larissa Volokhonsky (Farrar, Straus and Giroux).
