Evgenii Onegin +s/o (illiustr.Kuz'mina.) - Pushkin Aleksandr Sergeevich

"Eugene Onegin" is the most famous and most significant work of A.S. Pushkin, the pinnacle of Russian poetry and the subject of numerous studies. Pushkin began the novel in May 1823, and finished only in the fall of 1831, when "Onegin's Letter to Tatiana" was written. In the autumn of 1823, the poet told his friends, "I am now not writing a novel, but a novel in verse - a diabolical difference..." Entertaining, easy, based on a love story, conveyed in the manner of a trusting conversation between the author and the reader - and at the same time full of intractable paradoxes and riddles, Pushkin's novel attracts new and new generations of readers.
This edition includes a commentary on the novel by the famous philologist Y.M. Lotman. The scientist shows the intrinsically complex, contradictory structure of the novel "Eugene Onegin", hiding behind the external ease and comprehension of Pushkin's lines.
The text of the novel is published with illustrations of the outstanding graphic artist N.V. Kuzmin.
