Also known as "Moy Talisman. A.S. Pushkin."

"Beauties, maids of honour, hostesses of regular gatherings, top government officials and ministers - all came to be referred to as Pushkin's contemporaries, wrote Anna Akhmatova. He won a victory over time and space. They say: Pushkin era, Pushkin Petersburg". "The pre-Pushkin literature was secular entertainment, described the historical situation the 20th century classic Maxim Gorky. Pushkin was the first to understand that literature is a national cause of primary importance. The poet managed to convey the soul of the nation and its life". And on top of that, to introduce Russian literature to the world. "Pushkin's undiluted voice is long overdue in the English language. May this book help those not blessed with knowing Russian to hear it, perhaps, for the first time." Julian Lowenfeld The present volume of the selected works of Alexander Pushkin contains the lyrical masterpieces.
