Download or read book First Love By Ivan Turgenev Translated By Constance Garnett Annotated Edition written by Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-29 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ivan Turgenev's 1860 novel "First Love" charts the course of a 16-year old boy's infatuation with the princess next door in the summer of 1833, while on holiday at the family dacha just outside Moscow. What could have been trite, in Turgenev's hands achieves universal significance as he depicts the powerful emotions experienced by someone who is leaving childhood behind and entering the world of adult relationships, with all their joys and heartbreaks. The title suggests a light summer romance of the 'old enough to know better, young enough not to care' variety, but Turgenev instead delivers a powerful dissection of the infatuations of youth.

J. Finn, New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window Die first, pay later. It seemed the perfect way to avoid three million in taxes on a five-million-pound estate: change the trust arrangement. Everyone in the family agreed to support the heiress, the ravishing raven-haired Camilla Galloway, in her court petition—except dreary Cousin Deirdre, who suddenly demanded a small fortune for her signature. Then Deirdre had a terrible accident. That was when the young London barristers handling the trust—Cantrip, Selena, Timothy, Ragwort, and Julia—summoned their Oxford friend Professor Hilary Tamar to Lincoln’s Inn. Julia thinks it’s murder. Hilary demurs. Why didn’t the heiress die? But when the accidents escalate and they learn of the naked lunch at Uncle Rupert’s, Hilary the Scholar embarks on the most perilous quest of all: the truth. Don’t miss any of Sarah Caudwell’s riveting Hilary Tamar mysteries: THUS WAS ADONIS MURDERED • THE SHORTEST WAY TO HADES • THE SIRENS SANG OF MURDER • THE SIBYL IN HER GRAVE
Download or read book Love and Youth written by Ivan Turgenev and published by Pushkin Collection. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the most romantic of the Russian greats, an enthralling selection of short stories and novellas An icon of Russian literature, Turgenev was able to contain the narrative sweep of a novel in a single short story. His protagonists experience the joy and painful turbulence of first love, the thrilling adventures of youth, and the layered reflections of maturity. His great skill is to make his readers feel alongside these characters, rendering their complex interiorities, whether nobility or serf, in these stories charged with a profound social conscience. This collection, in a lyrical new translation by Nicolas Slater, places Turgenev's great novella First Love alongside a selection of his classic stories. From the evocative rural scenes of 'Bezhin Meadow' and 'Rattling Wheels', to the pathos and humanity of 'The District Doctor' and 'Biryuk', these are stories to be lingered over.

Download or read book The Annotated Nose written by Marc Estrin and published by Unbridled Books. This book was released on 2011-09-02 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A most unlikely life. “Marc Estrin” discovers that another writer’s novel — The Nose — not only has spawned a bizarre cult among the nation’s youth, but is based on the extraordinary life of a real person—an outcast named Alexei Pigov. “Estrin” searches Alexei out and asks him to provide annotations to The Nose. Alexei says that—although the events of the novel might, for the most part, be real—the purported reasons for them are all damnable lies. On the left-hand page of The Annotated Nose we read The Nose itself, and take in its beautifully unsettling illustrations. On the right-hand page we follow Alexei’s complaints – always surprising and often far-reaching. The layers in Estrin’s remarkable comic book are as multiple, eclectic, and outrageous as the sequence of masks Alexei wears to hide his face from the world over the caroming trajectory of his most unlikely life. The Annotated Nose is at once Marc Estrin’s most playful and his most ambitious work to date. A signed and numbered limited edition of 75 copies is also available.

Download or read book The Divine Comedy Annotated Edition written by Dante Alighieri and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-11-18 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dante Alighieri's 'The Divine Comedy' is a seminal work of Italian literature and a cornerstone of Western civilization. Written in the early 14th century, this epic poem follows the journey of the protagonist, Dante himself, through Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven. The poem is structured in three parts, each representing one of these realms, and is filled with vivid imagery, complex allegorical references, and theological symbolism. This annotated edition provides readers with a deeper understanding of the historical and cultural context in which Dante wrote, as well as explanations of the numerous references found throughout the text. The inclusion of annotations makes this edition an invaluable resource for those seeking a thorough analysis of this masterpiece of world literature. Dante Alighieri was a Florentine poet and philosopher who drew upon his knowledge of theology, politics, and literature to create 'The Divine Comedy'. His personal experiences and political beliefs greatly influenced the themes and characters portrayed in the poem, making it a deeply personal and reflective work. Alighieri's innovative use of vernacular Italian language set a precedent for future writers and cemented his legacy as one of the greatest poets of the Middle Ages. I highly recommend 'The Divine Comedy' to readers who are interested in profound philosophical and theological reflections, as well as those seeking a rich and complex exploration of the human condition. This annotated edition offers valuable insights and interpretations that enhance the overall reading experience of this timeless classic.
