4.5 ⭐️ Pushkin is undoubtedly the master of the Russian language. I ended up listening to this (thank you YouTube) and it is definitely my favorite work of his. The gentle satire of Russian society was done very well. I’ll admit that sometimes the prose got away from the point a bit for me..but nothing too egregious. However, the shining moments were all Tatiana- the ending especially was very inspired. One day I’ll own a physical copy of this and I can’t wait for a chance to re-read it!
