The top 10 most unfinishable novels
8. War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy
Sitting through the epic miniseries (even with Anthony Hopkin's selection of jazzy smoking jackets on full display) is a challenge in itself but navigating your way through over a 1,000 pages of meticulous detail regarding the Russians' struggle during Napoleon's reign is guaranteed to create your very own internal civil war. Excellent doorstop though.
