Eugene Onegin.

An incredible task - to briefly tell about the brilliant and unique "Eugene Onegin". Let's turn to Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin himself. "Not a novel, but a novel in verse - a devilish difference", "I write it with delight, which I... haven't felt in a long time", "In my spare time I am writing a new poem, "Eugene Onegin", where I am choking on bile", "my best work", "expected romance from me, found satire and cynicism, and quite honestly did not understand it"... The plot reveals the fate of a young nobleman, an "extra person", a representative of the Russian elite of the first quarter of the 19th century. Despite the entire social canvas, V.Ya. Belinsky will write: ""Onegin" can be called an encyclopedia of Russian life and an extremely popular work".
