In Ivan Turgenev's "Fathers and Sons," the clash of generations and ideologies comes vividly to life in 19th century Russia. This pioneering novel dives deep into the chasm between the old and the new, embodied by the conservative Nikolai Petrovich and his radical son Arkady. When Arkady returns home with his nihilist friend Bazarov, sparks fly and philosophies collide. Turgenev’s masterful storytelling captures the tumult of change, the pain of progress, and the timeless struggle between tradition and modernity. It’s a riveting exploration of how we grow, challenge, and ultimately connect across generations. |
