A.S. Pushkin based the plot of "The Queen of Spades" on a true story, imbuing the story with artistic depth and socio-philosophical concerns. The protagonist, Hermann, a young and ambitious military engineer, lives by three principles: prudence, moderation, and hard work. But will these qualities help him achieve success when Hermann's imagination is captivated by the possibility of a lucky break and fantastic wealth? Chance plays with regularity, the real intertwines with the fantastic... Alas, the duel with fate can end in disaster.
Vivid images of the characters, details of their surroundings, and signs of the times are vividly presented in the illustrations by Alexei Dmitrievich Reipolsky.
