While Wilson derided it as a disappointment in the New York Review of Books, other critics hailed the translation and accompanying commentary as Nabokovs 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.\" Nabokovs Eugene Onegin 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 centurys 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51893924659488,"sku":"NEW0691181012","price":19.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81M9-P6aYhL.jpg?v=1782011546","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/eugene-onegin-a-novel-in-verse-text-vol-1-princeton-classics-0691181012","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
