Hello, dear readers! In this post, I shall review Eugene Onegin , a verse novel by Alexander Pushkin . I decided to reread this surprisingly short novel, so that's what I did. In fact, I finished it yesterday. If you want to read a Russian classic that isn't desperately long, this is a solid choice. I first read it years ago, probably during my student days. Speaking of student days, this is the novel that your Slavic literature professors will pull out of their hat when you define a novel as a work of prose. What about the famous verse novel Eugene Onegin , they will ask you with a triumphant smile on their lips (and that'll teach you the value of precision). “But whom to love? To trust and treasure?

Credo sia qualcosa a cui si può rispondere solo con il tempo. Il tuo disegno è bellissimo, gli occhi rispecchiano bene quelle parole. Buona serata Ivana!
ReplyDeleteoh, sometimes we really expect too much from the people around us, so when they come short of our expectations we feel ourselves deeply unhappy and betrayed.
