Written as a series of nine letters to a friend, Faust's narrator tells his friend the tale of how he introduced a woman denied the right to read fiction and poetry to the intellectual pleasures of Goethe's masterpiece and opened her eyes to the realm of imagination, as well as a world of unbridled feelings and tempestuous passions . . .
A literary gem, Faust explores the elusive nature of love and the conviction that the essence of life lies in self-denial. This edition of Faust also includes the lesser known novella Yakov Pasynkov, a story that explore the nature of love and human relations.
"These tales highlight Turgenev's masterful control of character and emotion." -- The Telegraph
