Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Newly translated, unfinished works about power, class conflict, and artistic inspiration by Russia's greatest poet. Alexander Pushkin, Russia's foundational writer, was constantly experimenting with new genres, and this fresh selection ushers readers into his creative laboratory. Politics and history weighed heavily on Pushkin's imagination, and in "Peter the Great's African" he depicts the Tsar through the eyes of one of his closest confidantes, Ibrahim, a former slave, modeled on Pushkin's maternal great-grandfather. At once outsider and insider, Ibrahim offers a sympathetic yet questioning view of Peter's attempt to integrate his vast, archaic empire into Europe. In the witty "History of the Village of Goriukhino" Pushkin employs parody and self-parody to explore problems of writing history, while "Dubrovsky" is both a gripping adventure story and a vivid picture of provincial Russia in the late eighteenth century, with its class conflicts ready to boil over in violence. "The Egyptian Nights," an effervescent mixture of prose and poetry, reflects on the nature of artistic inspiration and the problem of the poet's place in a rapidly changing and ever more commercialized society.…

Paperback. Condition: Fair. The Queen of Spades, one of his most popular and chilling short stories, tells of an inveterate card player who develops a dangerous obsession with the secret of an old lady's luck, which he believes will bring him the wealth he craves. The Negro of Peter the Great, a story based on the life Pushkin's own great-grandfather, is a vivid depiction - and criticism - of both French and Russian society, while Dubrovsky is the Byronic tale of a dispossessed young officer. The Captain's Daughter tells of a young man sent to military service - based on the actual events of the rebellion against Catherine II, it demonstrates Pushkin's unparalleled skill at blending fiction and history. Together these four stories display the versatility and innovation that earned Pushkin his reputation as a master of prose and established him as the towering figure in Russian literature.…
