History of Love

"Love Story" of Ivan Shmelov is a vibrant, bright and at the same time dramatic story about the adulthood, the first love and the awakening of feelings. This is an amazingly thin psychological prose, in which the atmosphere of the Russian high school life at the end of the nineteenth century is re-created. Being at the threshold of youth, the hero finds himself caught by the first, not quite understandable outbreaks of passion and romantic breakthroughs. His soul breaks between two completely different images: a pure, elevated sense to the young Pasha and a sensational, managing attraction to the mountain Tone. Drying in the waters of youth experiences, flirt, jealousy and first disappointments, the Woman faces the complex nature of human relationships and the inevitable loss of childhood naivity. "Love Story" is a more sincere and deep work about the pure and confused period of youth, when every new feeling seems to be the most important in life, and the first love forever leaves a trace in the heart. Who to read: Lovers of thin classical prose, lovers of first love and adulthood stories, as well as everyone who wants to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the past era and feel the whole range of youth emotions.
