'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.

Alongside this is a selection of Pushkin's best lyric poetry, extracts of his best plays and an excerpt from his classic novel in verse, Yevgeny Onegin.
