A review by romanoirs
On the Eve by Ivan Turgenev

3.0

3.5 stars. Turgenev is becoming one of my favourite Russian novelists. His prose is breathtaking and his character drawing is something to behold. This novel is quite dense in parts but if you love Russian novels, philosophy and nature this is not a book that should be missed. The only thing I didn't particularly like about it was Insarov. He just didn't sit well with me. I would have preferred if Bersyenev or Shubin were the main character/s.
