First Love

This collection includes two astonishingly beautiful novellas: an engaging one, full of the subtlest psychology "First Love", a delightful, 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 captivating plots, and Turgenev's amazing talent make acquaintance with his prose unforgettable.
