Set in Baden-Baden, Smoke is Ivan Turgenev's most cosmopolitan novel. It is an exquisite study of politics and society and an enduringly poignant love story. Smoke, with its European setting, barbed wit, and visionary call for Russia to look west, became the center of a famous philosophical breach between Turgenev and Dostoevsky.

A World War One love story about the arrival of a soldier at the home of an aviator friend, who happens to be a dandy and avant-garde composer. The novel was inspired by two images, Goya's engraving La Mala Noche and Burne-Jone's painting King Cophetua and the Beggar Girl.
