Immerse yourself in the timeless exploration of generational divide and ideological conflict in Ivan Turgenev's seminal work, ""Fathers and Sons."" Set against the backdrop of 19th-century Russia, this captivating novel delves into the lives of two families as they navigate the rapidly changing social and political landscape. As the young, passionate nihilist Bazarov and his more traditional friend Arkady return to their rural homes, they inadvertently ignite tensions between the old and new ways of thinking, exposing deep-rooted rifts between the generations. Turgenev's masterful portrayal of the human condition and his insightful examination of the struggle between progress and tradition make ""Fathers and Sons"" a literary classic that resonates across cultures and eras. Rich in character and emotion, this powerful novel serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring complexities of family, love, and the quest for understanding in a world that is perpetually evolving. Delve into the pages of this timeless story and experience the beauty, heartache, and wisdom of a novel that continues to captivate readers more than a century after its publication.

The subtitle of Richard Garnett's biography (reissued in Faber Finds) of his grandmother, Constance Garnett (1861-1946) is A Heroic Life. It couldn't be more apt. She remains the most prolific English translator of Russian literature: twelve volumes of Dostoevsky, five of Gogol, six of Herzen (his complete My Past and Thoughts), seventeen of Tchehov (her spelling), five of Tolstoy, eleven of Turgenev and so on. Many of these will be appearing in Faber Finds. In all she translated over sixty works. It is not, however, the sheer quantity that is to be celebrated, though that in itself is remarkable, it is more the enduring quality of her work. Of course there have been critics - translation is a peculiarly controversial subject, but there have been many more admirers. Tolstoy himself praised her. Of her Turgenev translations, Joseph Conrad said 'Turgeniev (sic) for me is Constance Garnett and Constance Garnett is Turgeniev'. Katherine Mansfield declared the lives of her generation of writers were transformed by Constance Garnett's translations, and H. E. Bates went so far as to say that modern English Literature itself could not have been what it is without her translations.

This extraordinary achievement was accomplished despite poor health and poor eyesight, the latter being ruined by her labours on War and Peace, a tragic if fitting sacrifice; her's indeed was A Heroic Life.
