HURR LOOK AT ME I'M A RETARD

That's basically what you're trying to say here.

I just started reading this. I'm around the point where some princess (I think) and some other guy are trying to stop Pierre from getting the inheritance from the dying old man (count something?).

There are so many characters, and the Russian names are kinda hard to remember. I feel like if I keep going this problem will be solved though.

lol not at all

Always ask yourself who benefits and loses in a given situation and you might get a glimpse of the truth.

It is wonderful to fuck a farting woman when every fuck drives one out of her.

That's basically what he gloriously succeeded at saying here.

Just spend some time getting the names straight, like 20 minutes not that hard.

Most of the characters aren't important, don't worry about it. Just remember the main characters.

And that's why I never vote.

I care about politics but not politicians.

Read this post of yours back to yourself until you understand why you should feel embarrassed about it.

That's such a small part of what he's trying to say.

War and Peace is about coping (or failing to cope) with situations bigger than yourself and about saying that even the upper echelons of society you imagine to be masters of their own fate are not above being tossed around by the tide of the times.
It's not a rallying cry of the proletariat.

Yes. One of the longest and most critically acclaimed masterpieces of all time can be summed up in one sentence. Nailed it.

Should I read War and Peace?

Print this off and keep it handy while you read.
