Sebbene la maggior parte della critica russa stroncasse il romanzo fin dalla prima pubblicazione, definendolo ?un romanzo frivolo dell'alta società?, secondo lo scrittore russo F?dor Michajlovi? Dostoevskij ?Anna Karenina in quanto opera d'arte è la perfezione... e niente della letteratura europea della nostra epoca può esserle paragonato?. La sua opinione fu condivisa da Vladimir Vladimirovi? Nabokov, che lo definì ?il capolavoro assoluto della letteratura del XIX secolo?.

Virgin Soil
￥8.82
VIRGIN SOIL by Ivan Sergeyevich Turgenev (1818-1883) is his last and longest novel. In it he finally says everything yet unsaid on the subject of social change, idealism and yet futility of revolutions, serfs and peasants, and the upper classes. The hero, Nezhdanov -- the disillusioned young son of a nobleman -- and the Populist movement are young idealists working to bridge the gap between the common people and the nobility, and through them Turgenev works out his own troubled thoughts about social reform and tradition, vitality and stagnation. The ideas of gradual reform shown here are eventually to be supplanted by the extremism of the Russian Revolution -- but that is yet to come.
