The District Doctor Audiobook

" I love the humanity of 19th-century novels. Turgenev's fathers and sons fuss and misunderstand each other, philosophies are exchanged, and we end with two weddings and a tragic death. Great introduction by Alain de Botton in the OUP edition I read. Could have wished for a better translation. "

" I read this as a senior in high school with my English Literature and Composition class. I enjoyed it and the discussions we had. "

" Snoozed. And I'm a Russian history major. Go figure. "

" enjoying the superfluous man!The ending made me cry.This book explores the unrequited love between parents and the children, for me a wow moment. "

" Read this in high school and liked it. My first taste of nihilism and it fascinated me. "

" Russians knew their way around writing. And seing the opposition between the traditional views on life of the old generation and the subversive new views of the new generation it's always stimulating. "

" The clash between generations, as told through the lens of Russian Nihilism during the 19th century. "

" Brilliant book. Typical Russian literature setting, but far more readable than say Dostojevski. Great Story. "
