Description: On his travels through the wild mountainous terrain of the Caucasus the narrator of A Hero of Our Time chances upon the veteran soldier and storyteller Maxim Maximych who relates to him the dubious exploits of his former comrade Pechorin. Engaging in various acts of duelling contraband abduction and seduction Pechorin an archetypal Byronic anti - hero combines cynicism and arrogance with melancholy and sensitivity. Causing an uproar in Russia when it was first published in 1840, Lermontov's brilliant seminal study of contemporary society and the nihilistic aspect of Romanticism accompanied here by the unfinished novel Princess Ligovskaya remains compelling to this day.
