Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev

Smoke

Hardcover (Forgotten Books Jan. 8, 2019)
Excerpt from SmokeThe success of Smoke was immediate and great; but the hue-and-cry that assailed it was even greater. The publication of the book marks the final rupture between Turgenev and the party of Young Russia. The younger generation never forgave him for drawing Gubar yov and Bambaev, Voroshilov and Madame Suhantchikov types, indeed, in which all revolutionary or unorthodox parties are pain fully rich. Or, perhaps, Turgenev was forgiven for it when he was in his grave, a spot where forgiveness flowers to a late perfection. And yet the fault was not Turgenev's. N 0, his last novel, Virgin Soil, bears splendid witness that it was Young Russia that was one-eyed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
