Ebook: Strolls with Pushkin

Andrei Sinyavsky wrote Strolls with Pushkin while confined to a Soviet labor camp, smuggling the pages out a few at a time to his wife. His irreverent portrait outraged émigrés and Soviet scholars alike, yet was meant only to rescue Pushkin. Anglophone readers who question the longstanding adoration for Pushkin felt by generations of Russians will enjoy tagging along on Sinyavsky's strolls with the great poet.
