    Anna Karenina is a story told in three locations: the two Russian major cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg and the rural countryside. Each location holds special connotations that are reflected in events and characters that live there. Tolstoy, a fan of the countryside himself, uses the lives of Levin and, to a lesser extent, Kitty to illustrate the moral superiority of the countryside over its more urban counterparts. On the other end of the spectrum is St. Petersburg, a city of superficiality

    Tolstoy repeats the subject, Anna, for elven times in the reduced space of a paragraph. He spoils her as a father does with his only daughter, condescends further her whims, endorses her downfall, forces some fifty characters to move all around her intention. Everything is about her, no wonder somewhere along the line her selfishness amounts to cruelty. The awareness of her husband unhappiness doesn’t spoil her happiness as long as she believes being it her salvation, nor does the memory of her son

    Bertha Pappenheim is perhaps most famous for Josef Breuer’s study of (and writing about) her, but his treatment lasted only a couple of years—she herself spent nearly thirteen years, between 1882 and 1895, actively attempting to reconstruct herself.
