If only antipsychotics and mood stabilizers had been available and at the disposition of Count Tolstoy in the days of yore; we’d have no war, only peace; poor Anna might never have felt so inclined to fling herself under that onrushing locomotive; and the sorry Pozdnyshev’s attempt to exonerate himself from the murdering of his wife might have altogether been obviated, along with the wonderfully bizarre tale that is The Kreutzer Sonata, which relates to us the aforenamed gentelman’s lamentable degeneration into delirium.

THIS IS GREAT. and also, ANNA KARENINA IS MY FAVORITE EVAR.
