I finally finished Anna Karenina. It was really good, and although it was really long, I became so attached to the characters that I am sad it is over.
I also finished Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad. It is a beautifully written, although very disturbing book. The main character describes his horrifying experience as a steamboat operator transporting ivory in Africa. It delves into the darkness of the wilderness in Africa and the inhuman treatment of the natives by those who were sent to colonize them. Very disturbing, but very good.
I have now finished 46 books.
