Is Alexander and Napoleon the otp?

Natasha dies

Napoleon dies.

It's like 200 years old Christ they all die.

...

Anyone else notice parallels between Pierre blissfully submitting to the authority of the masons and Rostov submitting to the authority of his regiment?

Yes. There are parallels everywhere in this book, keep an eye out for more.

Part 3 of Volume 2 is a fucking chore. Something interesting please happen.

Decidedly.

Do you think so?
I liked the Rostov"s visit to the war hospital and the parallel he did with the banquet of the two emperors.
And the peace between Russia and France is very important.

im a little ahead but why is everything i read about getting cucked????

That war hospital was pretty fucked up. I enjoyed that part as well.

Russian literature is just wall to wall cuckoldry, because it was all written by intellectual nobles who invariably got cucked eventually by the commies

I haven't had the feeling of nothing is happening. I've enjoyed all of it.

I'm talking about the part after that.

What is the significance of the oak tree? And how does it relate to seeing Natasha?

I think that the oak tree represents the impassive way of life that Andrei is now searching for. I don't know how this relate to Natasha.

The oak tree changes with the season. What's the significance there?

It change, but it's still there after every season.
Maybe Andrei will change again in the next season? Maybe Natasha is the beginning of his spring?

Good. I hope she gets strangled.
