Aleksandr Pushkin - Eugene Onegin: A Novel in Verse - (Translated, with a commentary, by Vladimir Nabokov)
Eugene Onegin is the master work of the poet whom Russians regard as the fountainhead of their literature. Set in 1820s imperial Russia, Pushkin's novel in verse follows the emotions and destiny of three men - Onegin the bored fop, Lensky the minor elegiast, and a stylized Pushkin himself - and the fates and affections of three women - Tatyana the provincial beauty, her sister Olga, and Pushkin's mercurial Muse.
The little golden calf, a satiric novel by Ilya Ilf and Eugene Petrov; authorized translation from the Russian by Charles Malamuth; with an introduction by Anatole Lunacharsky.
