A review by authorcagray
War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy
This might have been over-ambitious of me, as it's incredibly long... I started listening, realized I had no idea who was who, and then paused and read a synopsis of the plot just so I could tell who to pay attention to and who were extraneous characters that didn't really matter. But Tolstoy introduces so many people, first and last names, and gives details that lead me to believe they're ultimately going to come back into the story that I still couldn't keep track. The synopsis sounded interesting but I think I'd have to physically read it rather than listen, in order to keep everybody straight in my head.
