"In this hilarious, candid, and thought-provoking memoir, [Groskop] explains how she used lessons from Russian classics to understand herself better." --Gretchen Rubin, #1 New York Times-bestselling author
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 (Anna Karenina), to being hopelessly in love with someone who doesn't love you back (Turgenev's A Month in the Country), or being socially anxious about your appearance (all of Chekhov's work). In The Anna Karenina Fix, a sort of literary self-help memoir, 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?"
This is a charming and fiercely intelligent book, a love letter to Russian literature, and an exploration of the answers these writers found to life's questions.
"[Groskop is] a delight, a reader's reader whose professional and personal experiences have allowed her to write the kind of book that not only is complete unto itself, but makes you want to head to the library and revisit or discover the great works she loves." --The Washington Post
"Learn how to hack life nineteenth-century Russian style! You'll totally be like Anna Karenina without getting (spoiler alert) run over by a train!" --Gary Shteyngart, New York Times-bestselling author
"For anyone intimidated by Russia's daunting literary heritage, this humorous yet thoughtful introduction will serve as the perfect entrée." --Publishers Weekly
