This volume contains Pushkin's translations of three celebrated long poems demonstrating his mastery as both poet and storyteller: the ballad The Bridegroom, combining everyday life, nightmare, and the elements of a good whodunnit; Count Nulin, a delicious rural-life parody of Shakespeare's Rape of Lucrece; and The Tale of the Golden Cockerel, the eeriest and most political of Pushkin's verse fairytales. The text is accompanied by illustrations by Russian artists and sketch detail by Pushkin.
