Padri e figli, del 1862, il capolavoro di Turgenev, è considerato da molti come una delle creazioni meglio riuscite della novellistica dell'ottocento, anche se i critici russi contemporanei non lo apprezzarono. Nel romanzo l'autore descrive in modo estremamente efficace il primo diffondersi delle idee rivoluzionarie e nichiliste in Russia. Il personaggio principale del romanzo, Bazarov, è un propugnatore di tali idee, ma si trova in conflitto con le proprie emozioni, che la sua mente non esita a tacciare come “sciocchi romanticismi”.

14 let p'esa Ivana Turgeneva "Nahlebnik" nahodilas' pod cenzurnym zapretom. Otnoshenie k nej bylo neodnoznachnym.

Nella grande Russia conservatrice e patriarcale dei latifondi e dei primi timidi moti liberali, il rapporto conflittuale tra tradizione e rinnovamento trova una rappresentazione esemplare in "Padri e figli", pubblicato nel 1862. È la vicenda di due amici appena usciti dall'università di Pietroburgo: Arkadij Kirsanov, figlio di un proprietario terriero, e Evgenij Bazarov, il giovane medico che crede soltanto nelle scienze sperimentali, il nichilista, campione di una società di tecnici, che non è ancora nata.

Arguably Turgenev's greatest work and certainly one of the most controversial Russian novels ever written, Fathers and Sons incited protests from all branches of Russian society.

"Рудин" - роман Ивана Сергеевича Тургенева, герой которого пополняет галерею "лишних людей" XIX века. "Роман стал погребальным венком на гробе всех старых рассказов Тургенева о тех абстрактных русских натурах, устраняющихся и пассирующих перед явлениями, ими же и вызванными на свет".

Tolstoy considered "Asya", written in 1858, one of Turgenev's two best stories, along with "First Love". Asya is a tragic story of two Russians abroad who are in love but conceal it from each other. Constance Garrett and Isabel Hapgood translated Asya in antiquated style approximately 100 years ago. Despite the story's superb character portrayals, it has rarely been available since. This translation is based on the Russian text published in 1961 in Moscow by the Government Publishing House of Artistic Literature.

A classic held as one of the greatest works of 19th Century fiction. The novel is thought of as a reply to the growing cultural divide and alienation between liberals of the 1830s/1840s and the rapidly growing nihilist movement. These two philosophies were contrasted with the conservative Slavophiles, who believed that Russia's greatness lay in its traditional spirituality... The main characters reflect a youthful rebellious and anarchistic thought, therefore confronted with their traditional fathers.
