Full Description
The aristocratic Yevgeny Onegin has come into his inheritance, leaving the glamour of St Petersburg's social life to take up residence at his uncle's country estate. Master of the nonchalant bow, the aristocratic Onegin is the very model of a social butterfly - a fickle dandy, liked by all for his wit and easy ways.
When the shy and passionate Tatyana falls in love with him, Onegin condescendingly rejects her, and instead diverts himself by flirting with her sister, Olga - with terrible consequences. One of the greatest works in all Russian literature, Yevgeny Onegin is a timeless story of vanity, innocence and love.
