Review Anna is a young and elegant wife of Mr. Karenin, who is wealthy and old. She goes on a trip to St. Petersburg. There she meets the handsome Count Vronsky. Anna and Vronsky fall in love with each other. They are very happy together and make a great looking couple, but soon their happiness gets under social pressures. Anna is hopelessly begging Mr. Karenin for a divorce, but he wants to keep the mother of their child. She has another baby born from her lover Vronsky. Conflict between her untamed desires and painful reality causes her a depression and suicidal thoughts. Anna loses interest in such a life and jumps under a train. |
