Father and Sons by Ivan Turgenev

This great novel enraged a nation, inciting protests from young and old, conservative and radical alike. With an incomparable sharpness of vision, Turgenev dramatized the explosive issues that divided Russia, torn by a social unrest and set peasants into revolt, generations against generations, fathers against sons. Described in some of the most magnificent prose ever written, climaxes to a masterpiece that glows throughout with an intensity labeled as "sheer genius."
