Väter und Söhne by Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev

"Väter und Söhne" by Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev is a novel published in 1862. When university graduate Arkady returns home with his friend Bazarov, a self-proclaimed nihilist, their radical philosophy clashes with the older generation's values. Tensions mount as Bazarov's dismissal of tradition and emotion faces challenges from unexpected sources—including his own heart when he meets the elegant Anna Odintsova. As conflicts escalate between fathers and sons, passion and ideology, the young men must confront what their beliefs truly mean. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
