Ivan Turgenev grew up in the house of an imperious landowner - his mother. He saw cruelty towards serfs with his own eyes and swore off becoming a serf landowner. It is interesting that Vanya was taught to read and write by a serf, read poetry to the boy, and helped him learn and love nature.
Becoming a writer, Ivan Turgenev endowed the serf Gerasim from the story “Mumu” with the best human qualities: hard work, the ability to love faithfully, tenderness, fidelity and skill keep your words no matter what the cost.
The book includes the works of I. S. Turgenev, which are studied in the 5th grade.
