Скачать или смотреть A Forgotten Russian Classic | The Duel by Alexander Kuprin

In a canon full of memorable characters and tragic endings, The Duel by Alexander Kuprin shouldn't be forgotten!

As I go down the rabbit hole of Russian literature, I've stumbled upon more writers and titles that unfortunately have not received adequate acclaim. In this video, I make the case for why Kuprin's work warrants a fresh translation or reprint and mention Ivan Bunin's talent as well.

Have you read Kuprin? Who else deserves a reprint? Comment below!
