Pushkin's last completed prose work, published on the eve of his death, is also one of the first historical novels (according to the author himself) in Russian literature.
A somewhat parodic memoir-like narrative of a witness and participant in the events, a realistic depiction of a godforsaken military fortress on the edge of the steppes, a precise historical novelization of the brutal Pugachev Rebellion, an unabashedly romantic tale in the spirit of Walter Scott with the implausibility of a number of plot conflicts—its innovative genre eclecticism makes The Captain's Daughter an artistic perfection and a brilliant example of Russian prose.
