Publisher Description: Tolstoy s story of one woman s fate is brought powerfully to life in this BBC Radio full-cast dramatization starring Teresa Gallagher and Toby Stephens. Anna Karenina enjoys a privileged and aristocratic lifestyle as the wife of influential government official Alexy Karenin. Yet their ten-year marriage is devoid of tenderness, and when Anna falls in love with the handsome Count Vronsky, they embark upon a deep and passionate affair. Reflecting the social conditions of the era in which it was written, Tolstoy s masterpiece sets a doomed love story against a harsh and unforgiving backdrop." |
