### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Probably good for those with interest in Russian fiction.
  

*by B***N on Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2016*

This book was recommended to me by someone who, knowing I am a hunter, thought I would enjoy it.  This compilation of short stories left me a little disappointed but most likely because I am not an avid fiction reader.  Turgenev uses 'hunting' as a device to place himself, and perhaps a companion, in various geographical locations where he meets someone or observes something and a story ensues.  Only the story 'Forest and Steppe' drew me in enthusiastically, in it, Turgenev explains the sights, smells, highs and lows of spirit, effects of time and weather affecting events in the out-of-doors.  I must admit that I do reread 'The Live Relic' occasionally, this story I first read, I believe, in a high school literature class (long ago) and for some reason this story strikes an interest.  I recall thinking the story was so implausible, upon first reading, that it was ridiculous.  Later, I learned Turgenev said it was inspired by an actual event, perhaps therein is the attraction.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    An All-Time Great Collection of Stories in the Grand Russian Style
  

*by B***L on Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2008*

This is the classic book that put Turgenev on the literary map--both in his own time and for all of history.  The strength of this, his first book, was such that, even if Turgenev had never written another book, he would still be recognized as the father of the modern short story.  Indeed, A Sportsman's Notebook was Hemmingway's favorite book, and it is not hard to see traces of Turgenevs influence in the work of Hemmingway and other later-day masters of the short story.Notebook contains twenty-five stories in which Turgenev shares shares memories from the hunting expeditions that lead him throughout the Russian countryside.  His writing is strong because there is real life in his people and real beauty in his landscapes.The translation by Charles and Natasha Hepburn is absolutely amazing; it far surpasses the work of Constance Garnett, whose Turgenev is for me nearly unreadable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great tales by a Russian master
  

*by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2021*

Tales written some 200 years ago, still thought provoking and perfectly told.
