Ivan Turgenev (1818-1883) was a novelist, poet and playwright known for his honest and affectionate portrayals of Russian serfs in the feudal system of the nineteenth century. Unlike his contemporaries Fyodor Dostoyevsky and Leo Tolstoy, whose writings focused primarily on church and religion, Turgenev believed in and advocated the need for Russia to Westernize. He criticized the provincial society and political turbulence of his time through sophisticated, focused and often emotional prose. This edition contains "The Torrents of Spring," an intimate novella that illustrates Turgenev's idealistic ideas about love, and that possibly reflects his own failure in finding romantic love. Also included in this edition, "First Love" is one of Turgenev's most beloved and well-known short works of fiction a tragic, thought-provoking tale of unrequited love in the social hierarchy. Lastly, "Mumu" is a penetrating look at a feudalist government through the lives of a lonely, old woman lord and her serfs.

I bought this book to get a copy of the short "first love." The other two stories are ok, but they stand pale in comparison of "first love." I would try to find a version that has other stories that accompany "first love," but that is also being presumptuous that Turgenev's other stories are better than the other two that are a part of the book.Product details

I bought these Turgenev stories since I read that Philip Roth described them as the best short stories ever written. I don't know if Roth's evaluation is correct but they are a terrific read.
