The Stone

by Ivan Turgenev

An old man's heart is rejuvenated by the presence of young girls, like a stone on the seashore revitalized by the waves. Ivan Turgenev's The Stone is a short story about an old man whose heart is rejuvenated by the presence of young girls. The story is told from the perspective of the old man himself, who reflects on his life and the impact that young girls have had on him.
