The list (one that includes Hamlet and Holden Caulfield) care of Paste Magazine.
From said list...
Work: Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy (1875-1877)
Character: Anna Karenina
Jerk Attributes: Anna is selfish and cares far more about her place in high society than about the feelings of either of the men who are in love with her.
Quintessential Jerk Quote: “You were not mistaken. I was, and cannot help being, in despair. I listen to you but I am thinking of him. I love him, I am his mistress, I cannot endure you. I am afraid of you, and I hate you.”
