About this title

Synopsis

The complete correspondence between the two giants of nineteenth-century literature provide a twenty-year record of their views on the novel, art, and contemporary issues and on personal events and problems

Reviews

With this first publication of the extant correspondence between Flaubert and Turgenev, the editor has illuminated the strong friendship and significant exchange of ideas that occurred between these two great writers of the 19th century. Beaumont's long introduction provides a useful context for the letters, but suffers from being overly ambitious, and hence is somewhat shallow. Because of the volume's narrow focus, we learn less about Flaubert and Turgenev as writers than as menand as old, depressed, and neurotic men at that. Turgenev, particularly, suffers from such treatment. For research collections. Joyce S. Toomre, Russian Research Ctr., Harvard Univ.
