Alexander Pushkin

Alexander Pushkin (1799–1837) stands at the head of Russian literature — the poet later novelists still answer. Eugene Onegin made a novel in verse; the tales, plays, and lyrics gave Russian a new natural brilliance, as if the language had been waiting for him. Pushkin wrote with golden speed: wit, passion, and a clarity that feels conversational even at full music. Exile, court intrigue, and a fatal duel at thirty-seven only deepened the legend. With 15 titles in our catalogue, he remains the writer who taught a literature how to sound modern without losing its song.
