Song of triumphant love

“Song of triumphant love” and “Clara Milich” belong to the so -called “mysterious stories” of Ivan Turgenev and immerse the reader into the strange depths of the human psyche, the mysterious world of feelings and experiences. The novel “Smoke” was also included in the publication - one of Turgenev’s last major works, where his mature artistic searches were reflected. The collection is completed by “Poems in Prose”, the only one of a kind cycle of small, deeply personal lyrical sketches. They were created shortly before death, and many of them remained unrelated during the life of the writer, seeing the light only after half a century, Turgenev shares his thoughts on the meaning of life and death, about art and morality, about the past, present and future
