Ivan Turgenev 
On the Eve 

Turgenev embellishes this love story with observations on middle class life and interposes some art and philosophy. In his essay ‘When Will the Real Day Come?’, Nikolay Dobrolyubov analyzed On the Eve through a political lens that Turgenev disagreed with, offending the author.
