First Love
First Love by Ivan Turgenev.
Ivan Turgenev's novella recalls a young man's first love and the discovery that the woman he admires is drawn to his father. An initiation into desire becomes an unsettling encounter with adult relationships.
Read it for the change between living an experience and remembering it. The story asks how youthful certainty survives the recognition that other people's lives have been unfolding beyond one's understanding.
