Description

Fathers and Sons by Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev is a powerful exploration of the generational divide between fathers and sons. Set against the backdrop of 19th-century Russia, this novel delves into the conflict between liberal-minded fathers and their free-thinking intellectual sons. The story revolves around Evgeny Bazorov, a strong-willed individual who challenges social orthodoxy and proclaims himself a nihilist. As his political ambitions become entwined with personal concerns, tragedy unfolds in a dramatic and devastating manner. This novel caused a significant stir upon its publication in 1862, leading to Turgenev's departure from Russia. Translated by C.J. Hogarth and featuring an Introduction by Lionel Kelly, this edition of Fathers and Sons offers a thought-provoking read for those interested in literary fiction and family dynamics.
