A Family of Noblemen

Description

Meet the Golovliovs, the supreme socially impaired family. In the tough upheaval times in the past and later the freedom of Russia’s bondservants, the Golovliovs are a nobility family unlikely to confront the variation needed in the modern society. Frivolous, backstabbing, selfish, adamant, illiterate, and harsh, their traits are captivated in the list of epithets they themselves call one another: The Hag, Little Judas, Simple Simon, Pavel the Sneak, the Orphans, the Blood-Sucker. They dislike one another viciously and altogether disdain the hayseeds they see, who are slowly arising to the makings of their new liberation. In this very popular of Saltykov-Shchedrin’s fiction, there is a deeper empathy into the situation of females captured in the complications of civic transition: Anninka and Lubinka, the noble homeless who, searches for freedom, rashly oust themselves into the life of a free spirited; the matron Arina Petrovna, whose seriously powerful authority of the domain heads to an invigorating although only short-lived substantiality; the poor damsel Yevpraksia, who is easily brought by the deplorable Porfiry Vladimirych as his paramour.

Mikhail Yevgrafovich Saltykov-Shchedrin born as Saltykov, nom de plume Nikolai Shchedrin, was a most famous Russian humorist of the 19th century. He mostly worked as a public employee in different competencies.
