Anna Karenina - LimpidSoft

PART THREE CHAPTER 32

Levin said what he had genuinely been thinking of late. He saw nothing but death
or the advance towards death in everything. But his cherished scheme only engrossed
him the more. Life had to be got through somehow till death did come.

felt that the one guiding clue in the darkness was his work, and he clutched it and
clung to it with all his strength.
