It's Lit: War and Peace (Patreon)

War and Peace and Everything Else | It’s Lit

For more It’s Lit, subscribe to Storied: http://bit.ly/pbsstoried_sub According to Tolstoy himself, War and Peace was "not a novel, even less is it a poem, and still less a historical chronicle." And in this day and age of publishing, where word count, “readability”, and topical relevance are the lifeline of getting a novel to print, we look at books like War & Peace as something of a relic. Hosted by Lindsay Ellis and Princess Weekes, It’s Lit! is a show about our favorite books, genres and why we love to read. It’s Lit has been made possible in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities: Exploring the human endeavor. Hosted by: Princess Weekes Written by: Angelina Meehan Director: David Schulte Executive Producer: Amanda Fox Producer: Stephanie Noone Editors: Derek Borsheim, Sara Roma Writing Consultants: Maia Krause Executive Producer (PBS): Adam Dylewski Editorial Producer (PBS): Gabrielle Ewing Produced by Spotzen for PBS Digital Studios.
