About this book
Returning to his country estate after a bitter marriage collapses in Paris, Fyodor Lavretsky finds an unexpected second chance in Liza, a grave and deeply religious young woman living nearby. Their quiet, hesitant love seems for a moment to promise happiness, until news arrives that upends everything. One of Turgenev's most beloved novels, it paints the vanishing world of the Russian gentry with tenderness and restraint, and treats duty, faith, and renunciation with the delicacy that made him famous across Europe. Also known as Home of the Gentry, the book is short, elegiac, and quietly heartbreaking. First published in 1859.
