![]() ![]() ![]() These stories all display the elegance and clarity of Turgenev's finest writing.(Publisher). ![]() This collection brings together six of Turgenev's best-known `long' short stories, in which he turns his skills of psychological observation and black comedy to subjects as diverse as the tyranny of serfdom, love, and revenge on the Russian steppes. Through this vehicle Turgenev explores the themes of love, passion, illusion and will versus weakness, which is also the focus of the companion story, First Love. ![]() An admittedly worn but still quite handsome limited edition of this collection of stories by Ivan Turgenev.
