About the book

Ivan Turgenev's First Love is a novella about a young man looking back on the intense and painful emotions of his first romantic attachment. Sixteen-year-old Vladimir falls in love with the beautiful and unpredictable Zinaida, who attracts a circle of admirers. His idealised passion gradually gives way to a far more complicated discovery, turning the story into a subtle exploration of jealousy, awakening and the loss of youthful innocence.
