Asya. Noble Nest. The first love

Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818-1883) - probably the most "school" of Russian classics. High school students write off each other about the "extra people" and a “broken heart”. True, only until that time, until the heart of one, then the other will not make a sudden revelation with lightning: this is about me! Actually, Turgenev wrote to himself. In each of the stories that compiled this book, his personal heart dramas are “sewn up”. Zina Naskina ("First Love") is the 19-year-old poetess Katya Shakhovskaya, who preferred the 15-year-old future writer of his father. Reading about Ivan Petrovich’s love for the courtyard girl ("noble nest"), it would be nice to know about Turgenev’s feeling to the Belarusian Avdotier.

The personal life of Ivan Sergeyevich is hard to call prosperous, and probably, therefore, the impossibility of happiness is the through motive of Turgenev"s prose (Maya Kucheskaya) And for the attention of high school students: "Turgenev Girls" are proud persons with strong characters, sincere feelings and willingness to victims for their loved ones.
