"Time passed. Unruly storms confounded  Old dreams, and I from year to year  Forgot how tender you had sounded,  Your heavenly features once so dear. Sleep from my soul began retreating,  And here you once again appear  Before me like a vision fleeting,  A beauty's angel pure and clear." Finished this on the bus to NYC. Four stars because I accidentally skip ahead and know who die in the duel. Four stars because I dearly hope a reunion between Onegin and Tanya. Four stars for the very thin plot, but is made up by the beautiful prose. Eugene is one of the most complex and wonderful character I have ever seen, the archetypal Russian superfluous man. #vscocam #vsco #igreads #igbooks #instabooks #instareads #booknerd #booknerdigans #vscovietnam #poetry #russianliterature #foodporn #breakfast by cassandrale179
