Faust: New Translation by Ivan Turgenev

Faust: New Translation by Ivan Turgenev

This lesser-known novella by one of the great masters of Russian literature and the author of Fathers and Children, now available to English readers in Hugh Aplin's lucid translation, is presented here with 'Yakov Pasynkov', another story exploring the nature of love and human relations.

These two translations of Ivan Turgenev's earliest long fiction are a welcome sign of renewed interest in Russia's least-appreciated great nineteenth century novelist.. In Yakov Pasynkov and Faust, Turgenev takes tragic irony in new directions. * TLS *
These tales highlight his masterful control of character and emotion. * The Telegraph *
Turgenev to me is the greatest writer there ever was. -- Ernest Hemingway

Ivan Turgenev (1818–83) was a novelist, poet and dramatist, and now ranks as one of the towering figures of Russian literature. His masterpiece, Fathers and Children, is considered one of the greatest novels of the nineteenth century.
