A compelling biography of Alexander Pushkin, Russia's most celebrated literary genius, Pushkin: Poet and Lover chronicles the turbulent life of the man who transformed Russian literature and elevated it to international prominence. Lambert presents an intimate portrait of Pushkin — the passionate romantic, the political rebel, and the prolific poet — drawing on the drama and contradictions that defined his short but extraordinary existence. Translated from the French by Willard R. Trask, the work captures the spirit of 19th-century Russia with vivid detail, illustrating how Pushkin's personal relationships, scandalous affairs, and tragic duel shaped both his art and his legend. With the authority of a seasoned biographer, Lambert argues that it is impossible to separate the man from his verse, as his loves and losses poured directly into works that would define an entire national literary tradition.
