A review by munjoyu
First Love by Ivan Turgenev

4.0

This short story is about unhappy and sad one-sided love.
Compared to this, the love in "Romeo and Juliet" or "Titanic" is a happy one albeit with their unhappy endings.
The teenage protagonist ("I") in this story has a crush on an older girl and the girl has a crush on the boy's father.
The madness of the girl's love seems even greater and more unhappy than that of the protagonist's
I wonder what the percentage of this kind of unhappy love might be compared to the happy one in the real world.
