description: 8 Hours 16 Minutes on 7 CDs. You’re in for a delightful surprise if you’re one of the many people who believe all Russian literature is daunting and difficult. Ivan Turgenev’s stories have enchanted generations with delicate prose, marvelously subtle irony, and richly crafted characters. Set against the serene backdrop of the Russian countryside, Fathers and Sons is the story of Arcady Kirsanov, a young man who returns from college to his father’s country manor with his radical friend Bazarov in tow. Behind Bazarov’s chilling intellect hides a heart of compassion and kindness—a heart that will unwittingly change the Kirsanovs’ lives forever.
