Description

This is Turgenev's most famous novel (1862) and its regarded by many critics as his best. It presents the clash of ideologies (moderate liberalism against a radical nihilism) in a Russian rural setting, in the form of the age-old conflict of generations. Fathers and Sons (as the novel is usually called in English, as opposed to the more literal 'Fathers and Children') caused considerable controversy in the Russia of the 1860s, largely through the figure of Bazarov, Turgenev's most provocative tragic hero. As usual with Turgenev, strong elements of lyricism and unrequited love are features of the novel's composition, along here with the arbitrary fate and, arguably, a reassertion of Turgenev's basic, underlying and pessimistic conservatism.
