Alexander Pushkin
Alexander Pushkin (1799-1837) is best known for his great achievments in poetry, but the fixtion he wrote in the last decade of his life was to have a tremendous impact on the subsequent development of Russian prose, influencing such later writers as Gogol, Dostoevsky, and Tolstoy. This is a new translation of all his prose fiction, from his famous story "The Queen of Spades" down to unfinished stories and fragments that appear in English for the first time. Pushkin's non-fictional A History of Pugachev, also translated into English for the first time, is included because it furnished the historical background of his novel The Captain's Daughter. The translator has taken care to achieve a ba...

Pushkin's masterpieces in prose, in sparkling new translations by the award-winning Pevear and Volokhonsky. The father of Russian literature, Pushkin is beloved not only for his poetry but also for his brilliant stories, which range from dramatic narratives of love, obsession and betrayal to lively comic tales, and from satirical epistolary tales to imaginative historical fiction. This volume includes all Pushkin's prose in brilliant new translations, including his masterpieces 'The Queen of Spades', 'The Tales of the Late Ivan Petrovich Belkin' and the short novel 'The Captain's Daughter', which has been called the most perfect book in Russian literature.
After Pushkin
‘How do you convince the English-speaking public that Pushkin’s genius is as great as the Russians claim?’ This question, raised at the bicentenary of Pushkin’s birth, is the catalyst for a collection of new translations, versions of and responses to the poetry of Pushkin by some of the best poets writing in English today.
The Tales of Belkin
"The Tales of Belkin is the first work of prose fiction to be completed by Russia's greatest poet, Alexander Pushkin." "Pushkin's artfully conceived narrator, the inexperienced and soft-hearted Ivan Petrovich Belkin, draws on the time-honoured themes of marriage, honour and betrayal. Truly a man of his time, Belkin relates stories of Byronic heroes, lovelorn heroines and supernatural events played out against Gothic backdrops. Pushkin's genius is to breathe new life into each genre, producing sparkling vignettes as surprising as they are charming. These tales have suggested fruitful new avenues of exploration to generations of Russian authors." "The volume is completed by Pushkin's other prose work of the same time, 'The History of the Village of Goryukhino', a wry parody of a contemporary history of Russia." --Book Jacket.
The Little Tragedies
In addition she provides critical essays examining each play in depth, a discussion of her approach to translating the plays, and a consideration of the genre of these dramatic pieces and their performability."--BOOK JACKET.
