CHICAGO—After forgetting to bring sufficient entertainment for the two-hour flight from Atlanta to O’Hare Airport, area man Kenneth Vargas reportedly spent his entire time aboard a plane Thursday reading War And Peace over the shoulder of the passenger seated in the row ahead of him. “I felt like an idiot for not downloading any books on my Kindle, but when I noticed the guy in front of me was reading something, I figured I could just look off of his,” Vargas said of the man’s print copy of Leo Tolstoy’s roughly 1,300-page seminal Russian epic. “While I really didn’t know who all the characters were, I think I mostly got the gist of it. At first I was just casually reading to amuse myself, but now I’m honestly kind of invested. During drink service I missed a couple pages, so I’m not exactly sure what happened with Natasha Rostova. I think I can pretty much fill in the blanks, though.” As he exited the aircraft, Vargas confirmed he was disappointed the flight had ended before he had time to finish the novel.
