A review by monazaneefer
The Queen of Spades by Alexander Pushkin

3.0

I was enjoying this one but like with most short stories, the ending fell flat or just was underwhelming. Perhaps, that's not a word against Pushkin but more in accordance to my own expectations with short stories.

I had initially started in all the wrong places with Russian literature, especially given the fact that I was transitioning from British classics (which is miles apart in difference). I really want to warm up to Russian classics and this gave me glimmer of hope in the beginning :(
