Motivation is fine wherever it comes from, IMO. I started War and Peace because I'm in a literary arms race with my sister in terms of who has read the longest novel.

War and Peace

Battle scenes amazing. Less enamoured of the society parts, which are a bit Russian Downton Abbey. Russian Jane Austen if feeling more charitable.

Nah.... Tolstoy wrote this as someone highly critical of his contemporaries. Julian Fellows creams his pants whenever he sees a signet ring.
