<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Life lessons from Russian Literature</b> <p/> As Viv Groskop knows from personal experience, everything that has ever happened to a person has already happened in the Russian classics: from not being sure what to do with your life (<i>Anna Karenina</i>), to being hopelessly in love with someone who doesn't love you back (Turgenev's <i>A Month in the Country</i>), or being socially anxious about your appearance (all of Chekhov's work). In <i>The Anna Karenina Fix</i>, Groskop mines these and other works, as well as the lives of their celebrated creators and her own experiences as a student of Russian, to answer the question "How should you live your life?" or at least be less miserable. This is a charming and fiercely intelligent book, a love letter to Russian literature. <br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Viv Groskop</b> is a journalist, author, cultural critic, and comedian. A graduate of Cambridge University and the University College London School of Slavonic and East European Studies. She lives in London.
