Excerpt from A Nobleman's Nest"'A Nobleman's Nest, '" says Turgénieff, "was the greatest success which ever fell to my lot. Dating from the appearance of that romance, I began to reckon myself as belonging to the ranks of the authors who merited the attention of the public."In fact, it stands quite apart among his writings. No other of his romances is permeated with such bold, such ardent faith, no other can be regarded as so sincere a creation. Here we have depicted the purest feminine type in all Russian literature, after Pushkin's Tatyana, - and in some respects Liza is superior to Tatyana. Here, also, Turgenieff presents to us that one of his heroes in whom he had the most complete faith, with whom he most sympathised, on whom he set his highest hopes - Lavretzky.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
