Hero of Our Time

Mikhail Lermontov, 2004

This mosaic of tales featuring a Byronic officer is the first major prose novel in Russian literature. Set in the rugged Caucasus, Lermontov's 1840 psychological masterwork follows the cynical Pechorin as he charges through an exotic land of mountain horse-men, society women, and smugglers, leaving a trail of damaged egos and broken hearts. This Modern Library Paperback Classic also features a glossary and a map of the Caucasus. Подробнее

A Hero of Our Time

Mikhail Lermontov, 2005

Despite his obvious talents and natural abilities, Pechorin is restless and bored. Travelling from the civilised world of society drawing rooms, to the wilds of the Southern Caucasus, he embarks upon a quest for motivation and stimulation.

This study of a man — and a society — in crisis was to become one of the most important books of its time Подробнее
