The story of Alexander Pushkin from his lycée days to the fateful duel, told in accessible language.
Learn about him as a Human, not as a bronze monument. Pushkin is young, bold, and loved by the public: he is the star of any ball, admirers carry him on their hands, and girls dream of his attention.
But neither high patrons, nor loyal friends, nor fame can avert from him the evil fate — exile, duels, poverty.
Until one day he meets the one, the only one, who will illuminate his life and become his destiny.
The fate of a genius, whom we are yet to truly know.
