The Tale of the Dead Princess and the Seven Knights


Alexander Pushkin - 1833
    A Russian adaptation of the classic fairy-tale of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.

Eugene Onegin


Alexander Pushkin - 1833
    Set in 1820s Russia, Pushkin's verse novel follows the fates of three men and three women. Engaging, full of suspense, and varied in tone, it also portrays a large cast of other characters and offers the reader many literary, philosophical, and autobiographical digressions, often in a highly satirical vein. Eugene Onegin was Pushkin's own favourite work, and this new translation conveys the literal sense and the poetic music of the original.
