Savaş ve Barış
Fiction
Tolstoy's monumental 1869 novel tracing five Russian aristocratic families through Napoleon's invasion, arguing that history is driven not by great men but by the aggregate motion of peoples. Şengör cites it among his earliest formative reads and returns to it as a model of how literature can contain genuine historical philosophy.
