Synopsis

Collector's Edition Laminated Hardback with Jacket

A jaded aristocrat, a love-struck young woman, and a reckless decision that changes everything-desire and regret collide in this tale of passion and missed chances. When the worldly but indifferent Eugene Onegin moves to the countryside, he shatters the heart of the dreamy and sincere Tatyana, unaware that fate isn't finished with them yet. His arrogance soon leads to a fatal clash with his closest friend, pulling him into a tragedy of his own making. Years later, when their paths cross once more, Onegin discovers that some wounds heal-but others leave scars that never fade.

A masterpiece of Russian literature, Eugene Onegin revolutionized storytelling with its blend of poetic brilliance and deep psychological insight. Alexander Pushkin's use of the unique "Onegin stanza" set a new standard for verse novels, influencing generations of writers. Beyond its artistry, the novel captures the restless spirit of early 19th-century Russia, exploring themes of social class, fate, and unfulfilled desire. Its impact echoes through Russian literature, shaping the works of Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and beyond, cementing Pushkin's legacy as the father of Russian literature.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin, born on June 6, 1799, in Moscow, emerged as a seminal figure in Russian literature. His lineage was notable, with his father belonging to an established noble family and his maternal great-grandfather being Abram Petrovich Gannibal, an African nobleman who became a prominent military engineer in Russia. Pushkin's early exposure to literature and storytelling, particularly from his nurse, Arina Rodionovna, ignited his passion for writing.By the age of 15, Pushkin had published his first poem, signaling the start of a prolific literary career. His works, including the novel in verse Eugene Onegin and the drama Boris Godunov, showcased his versatility and deep understanding of Russian society. However, his writings often drew the ire of authorities due to their political overtones, leading to periods of exile.Tragically, Pushkin's life was cut short when he died from injuries sustained in a duel on February 10, 1837, in Saint Petersburg. Despite his untimely death, his influence on Russian literature is immeasurable, earning him the title of the father of modern Russian literature. His innovative use of language and exploration of universal themes have left an enduring legacy, inspiring countless writers and poets.
