Tolstoy is my all l-time favourite. His War and Peace novel is so elusive to me that I am dying to read it for two purposes: first a for sheer joy of experiencing the journey of Tolstoy’s novel characters, and second- to get the insight of war and peace as narrated by Tolstoy, as a part of preparation for my work related to war and peace! I am a pacifist. At least, I know of me. All my writings go around “seeing peace” everywhere! And, I am working on “Borderless Earth & Warless World” on and off. It is a marathon work for me... In the midst, I keep thinking, to pick up and read this longest novel ever written. This is certain: if I don’t read Tolstoy’s War and Peace, I may die without completing my work, Borderless Earth & Warless World! Hope peace will prevail!
