{"product_id":"eugene-onegin-aleksandr-pushkin-9780691181011","title":"Eugene Onegin: A Novel in Verse: Text (Vol. 1)","description":"When Vladimir Nabokov's translation of Pushkin's masterpiece \u003ci\u003eEugene Onegin\u003c\/i\u003e was first published in 1964, it ignited a storm of controversy that famously resulted in the demise of Nabokov's friendship with critic Edmund Wilson. While Wilson derided it as a disappointment in the \u003ci\u003eNew York Review of Books\u003c\/i\u003e, other critics hailed the translation and accompanying commentary as Nabokov's highest achievement. Nabokov himself strove to render a literal translation that captured \"the exact contextual meaning of the original,\" arguing that, \"only this is true translation.\" Nabokov's \u003ci\u003eEugene Onegin\u003c\/i\u003e remains the most famous and frequently cited English-language version of the most celebrated poem in Russian literature, a translation that reflects a lifelong admiration of Pushkin on the part of one of the twentieth century's most brilliant writers. Now with a new foreword by Nabokov biographer Brian Boyd, this edition brings a classic work of enduring literary interest to a new generation of readers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Aleksandr Pushkin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0691181012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780691181011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Princeton University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/31\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 380\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.40w x 1.20d","brand":"Aleksandr Pushkin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44043542462719,"sku":"9780691181011","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_48d71ab1-13db-430d-ab0e-64369f52e803.jpg?v=1684967755","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/eugene-onegin-aleksandr-pushkin-9780691181011","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
