u/Annihilisic

His novels don't really prove that his moral view is correct - they just show how psychologically unbearable it is to live without one.

Arguments:

1. Anna is destroyed partly because she refuses to live according to the social/moral structure available to her.

2. Levin does eventually find something resembling Tolstoy's answer, but his intellectual doubts never completely disappear.

3. Pierre spends enormous amounts of the novel searching for meaning and repeatedly adopts systems of belief that fail him.

Any thoughts?
