Turgenev, I. S. - Pervaia Liubov (First Love)

Berlin - Peterburg (Berlin - St. Petersburg), Izd-Stvo Z. I. Grzhebina, 1923. First Thus. First edition thus; 5 3/4 x 4; pp. [5], 8-130; textured beige wraps; title and vignette in gilt; small nicks to corners and tips of spine and a bit of wear to edges; text block pulling slightly at hinges; numerous illustrations by Vladimir Konashevich, including frontis, full-page, and in-line; very good condition. A beautiful and uncommon edition of Ivan Turgenev's (1818 - 1883) novella, it was published in Germany for the Russian emigre community and illustrated by master graphic artist and member of Mir Isskustva Vladimir Konashevich (1888 - 1963). The work, originally published in 1860 in "Biblioteka dlia chteniia" journal, told the love story between a 21-year-old woman and a 16-year-old boy. In Turgenev's own words, it was the most autobiographical of all his writings and it drew polar-opposite reviews, gathering a great number of supporters and at the same time being condemned for its inapropriate subject matter. Very good .
