Aleksandr Pushkin (May 26, 1799 - January 29, 1837), Russian author, considered by many to be the greatest Russian poet and the founder of modern Russian literature.

Pushkin's own favorite was his verse novel Eugene Onegin, which he wrote over the course of his life and which, starting a tradition of great Russian novels, follows a few central characters but varies widely in tone and focus.

 bookideas.com: Secret Journal 1836-1837 by Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin
This one-year or so journal documents Pushkin’s marriage to a lady he only identifies as “N.” Most ladies are only identified by letter (such as the masterful “Z” who knew her way in the bedroom).
While Pushkin talks about his sexual conquests (he was disappointed in “N’s” abilities and needed to “cat around” as he did before marriage), I wouldn’t call it erotica.
Pushkin also tells of the problems that comes from his affairs, the diseases he’s brought into his marriage, and the jealousies (both when he and a rival, Dantes, want the same lady at the bordello and when this Dantes then takes to calling on “N.”).

In 1831, when Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin (1799-1837) asked a friend to have a St. Petersburg bookseller "send me Crabbe, Wodsworth [sic], Southey, and Schakspear [sic]" (Shaw, 2:482), he had already read Wordsworth, with sympathetic comprehension, for during the previous year he had written a sonnet closely modeled on one of Wordsworth's.
Pushkin's three sonnets--four, if the "Elegy" in seven rhymed iambic pentameter couplets is included--were written in 1830.

Having lived in Moscow for around 3 years, I'd heard there a lot about Pushkin and read many of his famous works.
The most prestigious of his, however, must be "Onegin." It's a great mixture of verse and prose in its form.
When Russians ask you who your favorite poet is they will often add a "Besides Pushkin, of course." Pushkin has an iconic status in Russia that is maybe unparalleled in the English speaking world.

The most highly acclaimed of Pushkin's works, this 1831 romance depicts a post-Napoleonic society in which a jaded young aristocrat rejects the love of a country maiden.
The composition of this novel in verse occupied a substantial portion of Pushkin's most productive years, from 1823 to 1831.
Tatyana admits that her love for him has not diminished, but her position in society, her duty towards her husband, outweigh his unwelcome, belated, and tactless emotions.

This bold rendering of the Russian masterpiece, together with Nabokov's detailed and witty commentary, is itself a work of enduring literary interest, and reflects a lifelong admiration for Pushkin on the part of one of this century's most brilliant stylists.
In his own candid assesment (which he had so many of) he placed himself only behind James Joyce as this century's top writer, and now some would agree.
Ignorant Heersink ignobly writes, besides other trite nonsense, "But Nabokov's Pushkin is too literal to be any good.
