Hero Of Our Time

Set in the Caucasus, the scene of Russia's military campaigns in the 19th century, this is both an adventure story and a sardonic look at the heroic ideals of the author's contemporaries - which makes it all the more ironic that the main character, Pushkin, (like the author) was killed in a duel.

Amplasata in Caucaz, scena campaniilor militare ale Rusiei in secolul al XIX-lea, aceasta este atat o poveste de aventura, cat si o privire sardonica asupra idealurilor eroice ale contemporanilor autorului - ceea ce face cu atat mai ironic ca personajul principal, Puskin, ( ca si autorul) a fost ucis intr-un duel.
