Selected works from one of Russia's greatest writers, including The Queen of Spades, The Stationmaster and a selection of Pushkin's best poetic work

In a fabulous translation by Anthony Briggs, The Queen of Spades and Selected Works offers the most comprehensive overview of Pushkin's mastery of the written word.

This stunning volume contains a diverse range of Pushkin's literary works, including The Queen of Spades, the most celebrated short story in Russian literature which served as inspiration for Tchaikovsky's eponymous opera.

  • In The Stationmaster, Pushkin reimagines the parable of the Prodigal Son;
  • Tsar Nikita and His Forty Daughters showcases some of his more provocative early poetry;
  • and the narrative poem The Bronze Horseman, inspired by a statue of Peter the Great, is one of Pushkin's most celebrated works.
