Reproduction of the original: Fathers and Sons by Ivan Turgenev

A handsome new tutor brings reckless, romantic desire to an eccentric household. Over three days one summer the young and the old will learn lessons in love: first love and forbidden love, maternal love and platonic love, ridiculous love and last love. The love left unsaid and the love which must out.Ivan Turgenev's passionate, moving comedy, A Month in the Country, has been a source of inspiration for films, a ballet and the plays of Chekhov.

Turgenev's iconic tale of love and mortality, set in 19th century Tsarist Russia, is a skillfully written sad story of heartache and unrequited love. It is also is one of literature's finest portraits of alienation, loss and hopelessness.
