While staying in a German spa town, he becomes entangled in emotional and ideological conflicts involving his former lover Irina and the Russian expatriate community. Around him, various Russian intellectuals debate politics, reform, and the future of Russia, but much of their talk is shown as empty or ineffective—like “smoke,” which also gives the novel its title. The work explores themes of love, disillusionment, political idealism, and the gap between speech and action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"904\" data-end=\"1173\"\u003eIvan Turgenev is one of the leading figures of Russian realism, known for his subtle psychological observation and his balanced portrayal of conflicting social ideas. He often examined the educated Russian class and their struggles with identity, modernity, and change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1175\" data-end=\"1441\"\u003eThis Hayat Yayınevi edition is an early Turkish translation, reflecting the mid-20th-century tradition of bringing major Russian classics into Turkish literary culture. As a political and psychological novel, Smoke holds an important place in Turgenev’s later works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2413\" data-start=\"2165\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(170, 26, 23);\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1443\" data-end=\"1478\"\u003e• Title: Smoke (Duman)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1480\" data-end=\"1503\"\u003e• Author: Ivan Turgenev\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1505\" data-end=\"1532\"\u003e• Publisher: Hayat Yayınevi\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1534\" data-end=\"1557\"\u003e• PublicationYear: 1972\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1559\" data-end=\"1578\"\u003e• Language: Turkish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1580\" data-end=\"1599\"\u003e• Format: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1601\" data-end=\"1642\"\u003e• Genre: Realist novel; Political fiction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1644\" data-end=\"1686\"\u003e• Main Characters: Grigory Litvinov; Irina\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1688\" data-end=\"1760\"\u003e• Themes: Love; Disillusionment; Politics; Identity; Intellectual debate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1762\" data-end=\"1839\"\u003e• Literary Significance: Critical view of Russian intellectual circles abroad\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turkrex Collectables","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49462897705098,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/3687\/7450\/files\/1_f9846858-c374-4bdc-aed4-5bc2216af8ff.jpg?v=1779899130","url":"https:\/\/turkrexcollectables.com\/products\/ivan-turgenev-smoke-1972-turkish-book-turkey","provider":"Turkrex Collectables","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
