The Precipice is a novel by Ivan Goncharov, originally published in 1869. It follows the story of a young man named Alexei Ivanovich, who is struggling to find his place in the world. Alexei is a dreamer, constantly searching for something more in life, but he is also indecisive and lacks direction. As the novel progresses, Alexei becomes involved with a group of nihilists who are determined to overthrow the government and bring about a new social order. However, he soon realizes that their ideals are not as noble as he had originally believed, and he is forced to confront the harsh realities of their violent tactics. Throughout the novel, Goncharov explores themes of idealism, disillusionment, and the struggle to find meaning in life. The Precipice is a powerful and thought-provoking work of literature that continues to resonate with readers today.The less Raisky appeared to notice Vera, the more friendly Vera was to him, although, in spite of her aunt’s wishes she neither kissed him nor addressed him as ''thou.'' But as soon as he looked at her overmuch or seemed to hang on her words, she became suspicious, careful and reserved. Her coming made a change in the quiet circle, putting everything in a different light. It might happen that she said nothing, and was hardly seen for a couple of days, yet Raisky was conscious every moment of her whereabouts and her doings.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
