2024 War and Peace Reading Schedule

36

Notes

  1. I am using the Oxford World Classic’s edition (translated by Louise and Aylmer Maude, edited by Amy Mandelker).

  2. Each chapter is linked to a chat thread where you can discuss that chapter.

  3. Most English translations are divided in the same way, but there are exceptions. The chapters in the original Maude & Maude are divided differently, and most free versions online will be the original Maude & Maude. To help readers, I have noted the difference below with an asterisk.
