      Vojna a mier je štvordielna epopeja zobrazujúca ruskú spoločnosť v prvej tretine 19. storočia. Román má tri roviny: historickú, osobnú a filozofickú. Na pozadí obdobia napoleonských vojen a tesne po ňom sa stretávame so skutočnými historickými postavami i postavami čisto literárnymi, ktoré ale odrážajú živé ľudské vzory. Na veľkom priestore, spôsobom pásma, pri striedaní období vojny a mieru sa odohrávajú osudy viac ako 250 postáv, hlavných i epizódnych. Čitateľ sa ocitne v šľachtických salónoch Moskvy, Petrohradu, vidieckych panských sídlach i na bojiskách s veľkolepými opismi bitiek. 61-094-80
