Shortlisted for the 2020 Read Russia PrizeA new collection of Pushkin's great narrative and lyric verse, translated by Antony WoodA Penguin ClassicPushkin's The Bronze Horseman, based on the statue of Peter the Great in Saint Petersburg and the great flood of 1824, is widely considered to be his most successful narrative poem, the second most famous poem in Russian literature after his Eugene Onegin, and notoriously difficult to translate. One of the most influential works in Russian literature, it will appeal to readers of Dostoyevsky's The Double, Andrei Biely's Petersburg, Anna Akhmatova's poetry, and the works of Nikolai Gogol. This new translation, described by Robert Chandler as "truly wonderfull," is accompanied here by Pushkin's greatest shorter verses. They range from lyric poetry to narrative verse based on traditional Russian stories of enchanted tsars and magical fish. Together, they show the dazzling range and achievement of Russia's greatest poet. von Pushkin, Alexander

Über den Autor
Alexander Pushkin was born in Moscow in 1799. He was exiled for his liberal views on serfdom and autocracy, but this allowed him the freedom to write some of his greatest works, including his novel in verse, Eugene Onegin. He died in 1837 after being fatally wounded in a duel. Antony Wood is an editor and translator from Russian and German, and also runs the publishing house Angel Books.
