A Story of First Love

A story of a man’s first love in the childhood of his teenage years at a summerhouse. Turgenev masterfully brings to light youthful love, with all its longings, grief, confusions, and resilience. Tragedy marks almost every page, but redemption follows.

A heart felt story about true meaning of love

Turgenev gives a true account of young love versus selfless love. The writing of this novella is flawless and the narration is a pleasure.

Beautiful

Stirring up old memories of love and innocence. Superbly written. Worth listening to time and time again.

For lovers of great Russian lit

Deftly performed story of a young man’s first love in the beautiful words of Ivan Turgenev. This was a perfect shortish listen on one of those sleepless nights, and now I’m looking for more Turgenev on Audible.

A man tells a sad true story to his friends.

This story is not very long and contains few surprises, maybe none if you're especially quick to pick up on hints, but it's wistful and tragic and very romantic and if you're in the mood for that kind of thing then it's just right.
