Alexander Pushkin's greatest short story. Hermann, a young German officer serving in the Engineers regiment, is obsessed by gambling, although he never indulges in it himself. One night he hears a tale about how a wealthy 87-year-old Countess in St. Petersburg once learned the secret of how to win on three cards from the Duc d'Orleans. He becomes obsessed with learning the secret himself. In pursuit of this aim, he becomes enamoured of the Countess' companion, the beautiful Lizaveta.

Pushkin's greatness ruined by narrator
Revisado: 03-16-17
The narrator uses a maddeningly staccato delivery over and over again, as if every 5th line or so is a punch line to a stand-up comedy routine.
I love Russian literature, but I found it near impossible to focus on the story given how annoying the narration was.
