Noble Nest. On the eve.

Ivan Sergeyevich Turgenev (1818-1883) is one of the sensitive writers who shaped the image of the Russian person in the 19th century. A vivid picture of tense social and internal spiritual changes unfolds in the novels "A Nest of Gentlefolk" and "Eve."
"A Nest of Gentlefolk" is Turgenev's attempt to find heroes of his time in the well-known noble environment of the 1840s. The author reflects on the possibility of love and a happy life in the face of moral discord in a person's soul, the breakdown of the former family structure.
In the novel "Eve," the boundaries between completely different characters blur. People of different backgrounds and with varying views on life meet on the threshold of their future and a new day.
