Summary
Evgenii Onegin is best known in the West through Tchaikovsky's opera Eugene Onegin. But the original narrative poem is one of the landmarks of Russian literature. In the poem, the eponymous hero repudiates love, only to later experience the pain of rejection himself. Alexander Pushkin's unique style proves timeless in its exploration of love, life, passion, jealousy and the consequences of social convention
