A Hero of Our Time

Classic novel by a great poet. According to Wikipedia, “Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov ( 1814 — 1841), a Russian Romantic writer and poet, sometimes called “the poet of the Caucasus”, was the most important Russian poet after Alexander Pushkin's death. His influence on later Russian literature is still felt in modern times, not only through his poetry, but also by his prose.”
