My father, Andréj Petróvitch Grineff, after serving in his youth under Count Münich, had retired in 17—with the rank of senior major. Since that time he had always lived on his estate in the district of Simbirsk, where he married Avdotia, the eldest daughter of a poor gentleman in the neighbourhood. Of the nine children born of this union I alone survived; all my brothers and sisters died young.

5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Speedy and insightful By Paulie Walnuts An easy-to-read introduction to Russian prose, The Captain's Daughter/The Daughter of the Commandant is a short, but furiously paced, insight into the life of a young soldier posted to a fort near Orenburg during the Pugachev rebellion. Pushkin's text, or at least the English translation, is effortlessly fluid and exceedingly rich at the same time.
4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Incomplete work By Andres Caballero I read the work through and through for a Russian Literature Class. I have worked a little on translating myself and considered the translation rather good in capturing the way Pushkin wrote, that is, in a very transparent, clear and to the point way. But, and this is a really big BUT, the version has omitted some fragments that are immensely important to the novel. I don't know if it was done by the translator or the transcriber, if by folly or by intention, but you will not find any of the epigraphs or the short but rather important fable of the eagle and the crow told by Putgacheff to Grinneff in the carriage they are travelling towards the end.I wouldn't recomend this version. Look for another one or buy one that has been edited with more responsibility.
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Easy read, simple story. By Shadowreader This is a fairly straightforward story of a young and naive young soldier serving in the hinterlands of Russia during the reign of Catherine the Great. There is a "coming of age" aspect. Despite somewhat limited description and sense of place, we are transported to another place and era, with different priorities and sensibilities. The story is easy to read and seems like a easy introduction to Russian literature.Formatting: Several awkward line breaks. The original has multiple endnotes explaining untranslated Russian terms and patronymics. These are not hyperlinked so you'd have to jump to the end and then back. I found the old style spelling of Russian names to be slightly annoying, but that's nitpicky.Good value!
