Edition: First EditionCondition remarks:Book: Good Jacket: Worn/faded, no tearsPages: Tanning and foxing Markings: Previous ownerCondition remarks: Light tanning on foxing on block, some tide lines on internal pages but mainly localised to front pages - pages…otherwise white and clean. A cornerstone of Russian literary fiction, The Complete Prose Tales of Pushkin gathers the full range of Alexander Pushkin's narrative genius into a single indispensable volume, presenting stories that range from the darkly comic to the hauntingly romantic. The collection chronicles the lives of gamblers, soldiers, provincial gentry, and restless wanderers, illuminating the social textures and moral contradictions of nineteenth-century Russia with remarkable economy and wit. Tales such as The Queen of Spades and The Captain's Daughter illustrate Pushkin's mastery of suspense and psychological depth, while the Tales of Belkin showcase his gift for irony and understated humor. Written in a prose style celebrated for its clarity and precision, these stories argue implicitly for the power of restraint - proving that elegance and brevity can carry the full weight of human drama. This essential collection remains a vital entry point into the Russian literary tradition and a testament to Pushkin's enduring influence on world literature. Hardback.
