For those who have read Turgenev, is it worth buying his books?

I've read and enjoyed both Tolstoy and Dostoevsky's stuff. I know writers from Hemingway to Henry James have said good things about Turgenev. Unfortunately, our library does not carry any of his books. Is it a worthwhile investment to buy his most well-known works?

Dostoevsky asked him for a 50 rubles loan and never paid it back. Caused a rift in their relationship for the rest of their lives.

Dostoevsky called Fathers and Sons a masterpiece, even after their rift. It’s also the only one I’ve read, and I thought it was great.
