We use the word “classics” for those books that are treasured by those who have read and loved them; but they are treasured no less by those who have the luck to read them for the first time in the best conditions to enjoy them (…) A classic is a book that has never finished saying what it has to say
Italo Calvino.

Pushkin, Alexander - La hija del capitán - Language: Spanish, Novel - Format: ePub
La obra de Aleksandr Pushkin sirvió de crisol donde se fundieron la precisión de la lengua escrita con la fértil fantasía de la lengua hablada. En La hija del capitán, bajo la influencia de Walter Scott, Pushkin, con una (More) sinceridad alejada de la exagerada afectación romántica, se sirve de un hecho histórico para explorar literariamente uno de los temas constantes en la historia de la sociedad rusa: el conflicto entre un sistema despótico e injusto y un pueblo sometido y humillado. La hija del capitán es una novela histórica aunque narre hechos prácticamente contemporáneos a la vida de Pushkin. La obra está considerada como una de las mejores de la literatura rusa y, en palabras de Gogol, la pureza y la simplicidad alcanzan tal altura, que la verdad misma parece artificial y caricaturesca.
