A Hunter's Sketches
Author: Ivan Turgenev; Publisher: Kessinger Publishing
Great Russian author Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818-1883) was an avid hunter and nature lover and used his own experiences in the woods of his native Russia to pen A HUNTER'S SKETCHES (written in the period of 1852-1874). This work established his reputation as a foremost writer of his time. Do you know, for instance, the delight of setting off before daybreak in spring? You come out on to the steps. . . . In the dark-grey sky stars are twinkling here and there; a damp breeze in faint gusts flies to meet you now and then; there is heard the secret, vague whispering of the night; the trees faintly rustle, wrapt in darkness. And now they put a rug in the cart, and lay a box with the samovar at your feet. -- from The Forest And The Steppe

Knock, Knock, Knock and Other Stories
Author: Ivan Turgenev; Publisher: Wildside Press
Classic Russian author Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818-1883) is considered one of the best stylists in Russian literature. His lyrical novels, plays, and poetry reflect themes of class suffering and profound humanity at the same time as they portray idealized nostalgic love, innocent young women, and the bittersweet fading of Russia's nobility. KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK, AND OTHER STORIES is somewhat of a departure because it touches upon supernatural and horrific themes.

On the Eve
Author: Ivan Turgenev; Publisher: Wildside Press
First published in 1859, ON THE EVE (of the Russian revolution) is another of Turgenev's lyrical idealist works. Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818-1883) defined the philosophy of nihilism and social change and yet managed to dwell on the bittersweet romanticism of Russia's fading nobility. This is a story of Elena, a young spiritually passionate woman with intense social principles, who abandons her family, home, and country, to follow Insarov, a romantic revolutionary rebel to his native Bulgaria. A classic novel of the courage of life choices on the brink of global change.
