A stunning collector's hardcover edition of Mikhail Lermontov's classic of Russian literature.

In its adventurous happenings--its abductions, duels, and sexual intrigues--A Hero of Our Time looks backward to the tales of Sir Walter Scott and Lord Byron, so beloved by Russian society in the 1820s and '30s. In the character of its protagonist, Pechorin--the archetypal Russian antihero--Lermontov's novel looks forward to the subsequent glories of a Russian literature that it helped, in great measure, to make possible.

This edition includes a Translator's Foreword by Vladimir Nabokov, who translated the novel in collaboration with his son, Dmitri Nabokov.

Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a jacket. Everyman's Library Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times.
