First Love Replacement Image

This collection includes two beautifully written novellas: the fascinating, psychologically nuanced First Love, the charming, lyrical Asya – and Rudin, a novel about the tragedy of a Russian intellectual dreaming of great achievements and great love, but doomed to repeatedly experience failures due to his indecisiveness and lack of self-confidence. The depth of the characters, the intrigue of the plots, and Turgenev's remarkable talent make the acquaintance with his prose unforgettable.
