Wondrous Moment: Selected PoetryWondrous Moment: Selected Poetry by Alexander Pushkin
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Again, not being able to read the Russian, I can only go by the translation--the poetry seems very much of its time, somewhat pedestrian Romantic verse. There is little in the way of striking imagery or new eyes on the world. The collection is a decent selection of Pushkin's love and political poetry.
