Ivan Turgenev (1818-1883) was a Russian novelist, short story writer, and playwright. His first major publication, a short story collection entitled A Sportsman's Sketches, is a milestone of Russian Realism, and his novel Fathers and Sons is regarded as one of the major works of nineteenth-century fiction. His other novels include Rudin, On the Eve, and Virgin Soil.
Another entertaining book by Mr Turgenev. The author seems more optimistic than his peers: even though in Torrents: love and betrayal compete disastrously, he still manages at the end to resolve his hero and his heroine with some happiness. An artful story teller. Very recommendable.......more
