Fathers and Sons

Ivan Turgenev

This Elibron Classics book is a reprint of a 1867 edition by Leypoldt & Holt, New York. This classic novel of intergenerational strife depicts Russia's schism between traditional, aristocratic and modern, nihilistic views. Bazarov, a young nihilist, goes to stay with his friend Arkady, finding much disagreement with the latter's uncle, Kirsanov. Tension between the young radicals and old landowners is the backbone of the work, conveying both the political forces at work in Russia in the 1860's and the tragic divisions arising between each pair of adjacent generations. When the work was first published, Turgenev was accused by the traditionalists of siding with the radicals, and by the radicals ofsiding with the traditionalists; however, many critics have since come to regard his depiction as poignantly accurate.
