"I am a sick man.... I am a spiteful man", a nameless voice cries out. And so, from underground, emerge the passionate confessions of a suffering man; the painful self-examination of a tormented soul; the bristling scorn of a lonely individual who has become one of the greatest anti-heroes in all literature.

Evgenii Onegin is best known in the West through Tchaikovsky’s opera Eugene Onegin. But the original narrative poem (consisting of 389 stanzas, the form of which has become known as the "Pushkin sonnet") is one of the landmarks of Russian literature.

Pushkin’s unique style proves timeless in its exploration of love, life, passion, jealousy, and the consequences of social convention.

This is Leo Tolstoy's integration of the four biblical gospels into a single account of the life of Jesus. The Gospel in Brief is an intriguing fusion of biblical texts and Tolstoy's own religious views. Tolstoy explains that his goal is a “solution to the problem of life," not a theological or historical statement. He therefore ignores issues like Jesus' genealogy and divinity, focusing instead on the words and teachings of Jesus, stripped of what he regarded as the Church's distortions and focus on dogma and ritual.

Con un texto elaborado en prosa poética, "Noches blancas" podría definirse como una tragedia narrada por un soñador. Dostoievski, desde su personal visión sentimental, reflexiva e irónica, dibuja en esta novela una serie de cuadros de la ciudad de San Petersburgo en los que, ensueño y realidad se confunden como proyecciones de la ardiente imaginación de un soñador. Queda patente la destreza del autor para profundizar en el ser de sus personajes, alejarse de lo moral y dejar al descubierto que el alma de los hombres está llena de claroscuros.

After narrowly avoiding a firing squad when he was just twenty-eight years old, Dostoevsky never took things lightly. His great novels burst upon the European literary scene like a succession of thunderbolts. His understanding of the darker and more extreme recesses of the human mind cast a forceful light into these areas of experience. The raw psychology and passionate involvement of his books galvanized writers and thinkers as disparate as Nietzsche and Kafka.

"No es una novela, aún menos un poema y aún menos una crónica histórica": así presentaba Lev N. Tolstói su monumental Guerra y paz, que, publicada por entregas en la revista El Mensajero Ruso entre 1865 y 1867 y en forma de libro en 1869, no dejó de causar desconcierto en su tiempo y luego, hasta nuestros días, apasionados intentos de definición. El propio autor decía que los libros más relevantes de la literatura rusa −como Almas muertas de Gógol y Memorias de la casa muerta de Dostoievski− se resistían a encajar en ningún género literario "europeo".
