Zamanımızın Bir Kahramanı

“A masterpiece that moves quickly and manages to captivate the reader with its strong fiction.” -Vladimir Nabokov

A Hero of Our Time, which is both the first psychological and the first great novel of Russian literature, is one of the masterpieces of our age. The work of Lermontov, who lost his life in a duel at the age of twenty-seven and was one of the leading poets of his age, and influenced masters such as Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy, tells the adventures of officer Pechorin, who is not only one of Russia's greatest antiheroes but also one of the most important Byronic heroes in the history of literature. .

“A Hero of Our Time, my merciful gentlemen, is certainly a portrait, but not a portrait of a single man: it is a portrait made of the defects of our whole generation at the peak of its development. Now you will tell me again that a person cannot be so bad; And I will ask you, do you believe that all tragic and romantic villains can exist, but you do not believe that Pechorin is real? You admired the characters that came from the mind of someone much scarier and uglier, but why doesn't this character, which also came from someone's mind, earn your compassion? Is it because there is more truth in it than you desire?
