A Hero of Our Time

“The main idea of Mr. Lermontov’s novel contains an important contemporary question about the inner man.” — noted V. G. Belinsky in his review of the novel. Almost 140 years have passed since the writing of “A Hero of Our Time” and the question remains contemporary, and the answer has still not been fully found. The edition is accompanied by illustrations from the outstanding book graphic artist Dementiy Shmarinov.
