Preye’s Reviews > An Unofficial Marriage: A Novel about Pauline Viardot and Ivan Turgenev > Status Update

I believe the term for this level of preoccupation with another person is termed "whipped." Fellows, Ivan is so whipped and past redemption. Love him and her and everybody. This book is giving me the feels I have been missing!!

I love that he's so smitten with her. I'm not sure the narrative will shift to the female protagonist, but at this point I can't seem to being myself to mind. Ivan is an honest, refreshing, and amazing character and I'm stoked to see how his relationship with Pauline progresses!
