About this audiobook
Returning to his ancestral home, a man seeks peace only to find himself entangled in a web of duty and forbidden longing. This atmospheric novel paints a vivid picture of the Russian gentry and the inevitable collision between personal desire and social honor. Turgenev’s lyrical prose evokes a world of fading estates and lingering regrets. It remains a timeless meditation on the bittersweet nature of finding where one truly belongs.
