A review by _dunno_
Home of the Gentry by Ivan Turgenev

3.0

Rather interesting than captivating. After 50 pages it was quite predictable he will fall for her and for a while I had the feeling I was reading the Russian version of "Pride and prejudice", but thank goodness it wasn't so. I am a fan of happy endings but I swear, if this one ended happily I wouldn't have read Turgenev again.

Turgenev has an interesting way of setting his work, maybe I'll get into details after finishing [b:Fathers and Sons|19117|Fathers and Sons|Ivan Turgenev|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1287773617s/19117.jpg|1294426].

Interesting fact: in 1979, a Russian discovered an asteroid and named it Turgenev, after the writer.
