Publisher's Synopsis
""The Torrents of Spring"" is a novel by the Russian author Ivan Turgenev, first published in 1872. The story follows the life of a young man named Dimitry Sanin, who leaves his small Russian town to travel to Germany in search of adventure and love. Along the way, he meets and falls in love with a beautiful young woman named Gemma, but their romance is threatened by the disapproval of her family and the interference of a cunning Italian count. The novel explores themes of love, class, and cultural differences, as well as the struggle between tradition and modernity. Turgenev's writing is characterized by his vivid descriptions of nature and his insightful observations of human behavior. ""The Torrents of Spring"" is considered one of Turgenev's most significant works, and is often compared to his earlier novel ""Fathers and Sons"" for its exploration of generational conflict and social change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
