A Hero of Our Time
Author: Mikhail Lermontov
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Mikhail Lermontov's 'A Hero of Our Time' is a classic Russian novel consisting of five interconnected stories that explore the depths of the human soul and the complexities of the protagonist, Pechorin. Written in the mid-19th century, during the Romantic era in literature, the book is characterized by its psychological depth, intricate narrative structure, and vivid descriptions of the Caucasus landscape. Lermontov's melancholic and introspective writing style is evident throughout the novel, making it a timeless masterpiece of Russian literature. Each story within the novel delves into themes of love, honor, and morality, challenging the reader to question societal norms and the nature of heroism. Mikhail Lermontov, a Russian poet and novelist, was known for his revolutionary spirit and his critiques of Russian society. 'A Hero of Our Time' reflects Lermontov's disillusionment with the romantic ideals of his time and his exploration of the complexities of the human psyche. His own experiences as a military officer in the Caucasus likely influenced the novel's setting and themes, adding a sense of authenticity to the narrative. I highly recommend 'A Hero of Our Time' to readers interested in Russian literature, psychological novels, and philosophical explorations of the human condition. Lermontov's introspective storytelling and vivid characterizations make this novel a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the complexities of human nature.

A Hero Of Our Time
Author: Mikhail Lermontov
Publisher: Abrams
ISBN: 1590209567
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
The first major Russian novel, A Hero of Our Time was both lauded and reviled upon publication. Its dissipated hero, twenty-five-year-old Pechorin, is a beautiful and magnetic but nihilistic young army officer, bored by life and indifferent to his many sexual conquests. Chronicling his unforgettable adventures in the Caucasus involving brigands, smugglers, soldiers, rivals, and lovers, this classic tale of alienation influenced Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky, and Chekhov in Lermontov’s own century, and finds its modern-day counterparts in Anthony Burgess’s A Clockwork Orange, the novels of Chuck Palahniuk, and the films and plays of Neil LaBute.
