A MONTH IN THE COUNTRY
BY IVAN TURGENEV
TRANSLATED BY JOHN CHRISTOPHER JONES
DIRECTED BY ERICA SCHMIDT
Turgenev’s masterpiece chronicles the comic and erotic turmoil that befalls an otherwise quiet country estate when a handsome young tutor arrives to teach Natalya Petrovna’s young son. Soon Natalya is interested in a tutelage of another kind, much to the consternation of her husband and her long suffering friend, Rakitin, who is hopelessly and secretly smitten with her. A beautifully nuanced meditation on the nature of unrequited love.
