Penguin Great Loves First Love
Penguin Great Loves First Love

Diverse tales exploring the complexities of love.

"First Love" and the other stories in this collection portray love's multitude - from joy to sorrow, innocence to passion. Turgenev, a master of psychological depth, sheds light on love that defies expectations and sparks the soul. These narratives will resonate with you whether you're navigating your own love story or savoring the thrill and pain of others.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

At the end of a dinner party, the remaining guests smoke cigars and tell stories of their first love. For one of them, it will be a dark journey into his past, reawakening unbearable memories of his obsession with the beautiful Zinaida, and the cruelty and betrayal that followed... Love can be surprising. Love can be heartbreaking. Love can be an art. But love is the singular emotion that all humans rely on most . . . and crave endlessly, no matter what the cost. United by this theme of love, the nine titles in the Penguin Great Loves collection include tales of blissful and all-encompassing, doomed and tragic, erotic and absurd, seductive and adulterous, innocent and murderous love. A deeply moving addition to the Penguin Great Ideas and Great Journeys series, each gorgeously packaged book will challenge all expectations of love while celebrating the beauty of its existence. Sorry! Book description for this title is not available.
