Daniil Kalinkin

Alexander Pushkin is young, brash and adored by high society. He is the star at every ball he attends, his fans revere his poetic talent, and young women dream of winning his attention.

Only when he meets his true love does he find meaning in life, and his genius develops to make him the legend the world knows today.
