In Part III, both Levin and Vronsky are frustrated by the
feeling that their lives seem suspended, that they are \"spinning
their wheels.\" Levin pours his energies into his estate, into
establishing a cooperative land arrangement with the peasants
who work for him. But he knows deep down that his life is
incomplete without Kitty. He also comes to know that he has
been trying to bury himself in work in order to banish from his
mind thoughts of his dying brother--and death itself.
Vronsky is agitated because Anna has not left Karenin. He is
weary of their \"secret life\" and aches for a change.
