so i'm halfway through War and Peace and
to my pleasant surprise,
i really enjoy it.
it is a surprise given the fact that historical novels
usually bore the hell out of me.
well, it's only historical, though a large part of it
presents the Napoleonic wars against Russia.
I don't know why i like it so much;
it may be because of the way Tolstoy portrays the
characters, meticulous and slightly ironic.
anyways, to be honest, i started reading it because i thought that
there were only 2 volumes; it turned out there were 4.
halfway through the first book,
i was sure that i won't even start the second, but
here i am, reading out of the third.
getting through with this book will be quite the accomplishment for me,
it will show that some things that i start-i can finish.
listening: cancao do mar by dulce pontes
reading: war and peace (volume 3 of 4) by lev tolstoy
watching: my name is khan (karan johar)
