There’s been a book that impressed me a lot and it does even change my perspective on life. And it’s the book name, let me see. It’s from the outer left-toe story, a famous writer from Russia. His book name was War and Peace. And the book is about the journey of the Napoleonic era. When the Russian soldiers in the old government got to deal with the troops, it’s the Napoleonic army. I have no idea before what was word like and therefore I often think that peace is nonsense. We go to make each other disabled to move, to kill, to earn, to learn and then we go home.

In one's life, there are many things that we encounter, as well as daily activities such as reading books. And that's why I'm here. There's been a book that impressed me a lot, and it even changed my perspective on life. The book is called, let me see, it's from the author Leo Tolstoy, a famous writer from Russia. The book is War and Peace. It is about the journey during the Napoleonic era, when the Russian soldiers had to deal with the Napoleonic army. I had no idea before what war was like, and therefore I often thought that peace was nonsense. We go to make each other disabled, to kill, to earn, to learn, and then we go home. But then I read this book, and it explained to me what it was like. Humanity was lost, morality faded, and casualties were endless. Pain is not only in physical terms but also in mental health. Like the mother who lost her sons on the battlefield, the father waiting for the son who won't come back again. The one place that they once called their motherland is now being invaded and occupied by the enemy. It's all really fascinating, thrilling, and, what should I say, there’s even some kind of sadness in that.
