Pushkin's last completed prose work, published on the eve of his death, and one of the first historical novels (by the author's own definition) in Russian literature.
Wearing a partly parodic character memoir form of narration of witnesses and participants of events, realistic depiction of the godforsaken military fortress on the border of the steppes, accurate historical novelization of the brutal Pugachev uprising, shamelessly romantic tale in the spirit of Walter Scott with the implausibility of a number of plot conflicts - innovative genre eclecticism makes "Captain's Daughter" artistic perfection and a brilliant example of Russian prose.
