Welcome to Footnotes and Tangents. I am your guide, Simon Haisell, and this is a year-long slow read of Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace, a chapter a day.
Each week, I dive into the details, with summaries, background, footnotes and tangents to enrich your reading.
On my website, you can find the reading schedule and plot summaries for the full cast of characters.
From the reading schedule, you can reach the chat threads for each chapter of War and Peace. I also link to the threads in these weekly posts. You can discuss the week’s reading there or in the comments of this post – whatever works best for you.
War and Peace Daily: In your subscription settings, you can also turn on notifications for a daily email with a chapter summary, footnotes and tangents, and a link to the chapter chat thread.
