Russian classic Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov continues the theme of the superfluous man begun by Pushkin.
The charismatic handsome Grigory Pechorin is disappointed in life. Secular life has corrupted him, the pleasure of simple human joys is no longer there. The hero tries to fill his existence with at least some meaning.
But his environment suffers from these attempts. Love for the Circassian Bela - destroys her family. Interference in the life of a quiet village - makes a commotion. Unwillingness to communicate with an old friend - inflicts a heavy emotional wound on him. Everything that Pechorin touches turns out to be broken. He himself realizes this and suffers even more. After reading the novel, you will see how the vices of society can destroy a person's personality.
The book is accompanied by an article analyzing the novel by the famous critic Vissarion Belinsky (1840).
