| This new, acclaimed, adaptation of Turgenev's classic comedy explores the delicious paradox of humour and despair to be found in the casual infliction of cruelty. the homecoming of Olga Petrovna and her husband, Yeletsky, to her deceased parents' country manor should be a happy affair for the house's resident penniless gentleman, Kuzovkin. His friend Ivanov is less optimistic, fearing for Kuzovkin's fate. All begins well but is cut short by the arrival of a rich neighbour, Tropatchov, whose favourite pastime is humiliating all he considers inferior. In no time the "gentlemen" are plying Kuzovkin with drink, exposing his pathetic history layer by layer. When Kuzovkin breaks in a drunken rage, he reveals a family secret that is set to challenge their very identity. In a moving denouement Kuzovkin wins back what has been his all along but cannot reclaim his honour. | |||||
