Eugene Onegin. Graphic Guide

You are presented with a graphic guide to Alexander Pushkin's novel «Eugene Onegin». It was written by the author Alexey Oleynikov, and illustrated by the artist Natasha Yaskina.
What is the purpose of this book? To help understand the world of... Pushkin's great novel. To alleviate the fear and sharp rejection that often arise in teenagers when they encounter Russian classical literature.

The guide presents a condensed plot line of the novel in comic format and explains in detail the «dark» places of the text - the details and particulars of a life far removed from us in the aristocratic Russia of the times of Alexander I.

What was the meaning of the duel and what does honor mean for a Russian nobleman?
How much did Onegin's outfit and meal cost?
Was it expensive to live in St. Petersburg?
Why was Tatyana's letter an unimaginable breach of etiquette?
How and why did people predict the future during the holidays?

Of course, our guide cannot replace the novel. But we hope that it can help understand its complex world, engage, bring the characters to life, unveil it for the young reader from an unfamiliar vibrant perspective, and convey the spirit of the Pushkin era with all its complexities and contradictions.
