About this book

Seven pieces by Ivan Turgenev in Isabel F. Hapgood's English version: the title story, The Dream, Father Alexyéi's Story, Old Portraits, The Song of Love Triumphant, Clara Mílitch and a set of prose poems. The title story, dated 1881, is told by a grey-haired old man among eight people discussing the day's affairs, who offers the youth of his grandnephew Mísha Pólteff, born in 1828 on a remote steppe estate, as an example of recklessness in an earlier day.

Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev

Ivan Turgenev (1818-1883) was a Russian novelist and playwright, the first of his countrymen to win a wide European readership. A friend of Flaubert and Henry James, he wrote with a spare lyricism, and his Fathers and Sons remains a landmark of the nineteenth-century novel.
