Ferapóntov is a peasant innkeeper, introduced through a vivid, imposing physical presence and the sturdy directness of his station. The novel offers him no extended personal arc, but his figure stands out as one of the ordinary people whose lives are caught in the upheaval around them.
Description
Ferapóntov is a stout peasant in his forties, dark-complexioned and red-faced, with a round belly. His face is marked by thick lips, a broad knob-like nose, and similar prominent forms above his black, frowning brows. He wears a waistcoat over a cotton shirt, and his heavy, stern appearance gives him a forceful, grounded presence.
