Synopsis
Turgenev's "comedy in five acts" was written in 1850. It depicts a love triangle straddling social and class barriers. Natalia is the bored wife residing at her husband's country estate who falls in love with her son's tutor. Vera, Natalia's ward, also falls for him and this rivalry results in the tutor being sent away. In the course of its various performances, it was among the first dramatic works to help establish Stanislavsky's acting methods by virtue of Turgenev's finely nuanced psychological dialogue. The play is also considered an important precursor to the style and subjects taken up by Chekhov.

Industry Reviews
"...[the characters'] fate is corporate."
V. S. Pritchett

"...A Month in the Country remains one of the most difficult plays in the modern canon to stage in a way that achieves the luxuriant sadness and bitter comedy that are on the printed page."
Smith
