Overview

De novelle "Huwelijksgeluk" (1859) verhaalt de liefdesgeschiedenis tussen de zeventienjarige Masha en de zesendertigjarige Sergej. Masha vertelt het verhaal. Masha is stapelverliefd op Sergej en die liefde blijkt wederzijds, al blijft Sergej bang dat, gezien hun leeftijdsverschil, zij het snel gezien zal hebben. Hij wil een rustig leven leiden, vertelt hij haar, terwijl zij de wereld wil ontdekken. Desalniettemin trouwen ze. Zoals verwacht begint Masha al snel verveeld te raken op het landgoed van Sergej. Toch blijft hun wederzijdse liefde en begrip sterk.
