Evgenii Onegin ; [sound recording] by Pushkin, Alexander,author.; Hobson, Mary,translator; Jason, Neville.narrator;
"Evgenii Onegin is best known in the West through Tchaikovsky's opera Eugene Onegin. But the original narrative poem (consisting of 389 stanzas, the form of which has become known as the 'Pushkin sonnet') is one of the landmarks of Russian literature. In the poem, the eponymous hero repudiates love, only to later experience the pain of rejection himself. Pushkin's unique style proves timeless in its exploration of love, life, passion, jealousy and the consequences of social convention. This is the first time the work has appeared on audiobook and is part of the Naxos AudioBooks intention to make the major European literary works available on audiobook."-Amazon

Rupert Davies, Ewen Solon, Helen Shingler, Neville Jason.Long-awaited and unseen anywhere for decades, Maigret (1960-1963) is the definitive adaptation of Georges Simenon's world-famous novels. The BBC television production stars Rupert Davies as Commissaire Jules Maigret, the dogged French detective. Though Simenon's books have been adapted many times, Davies's celebrated, BAFTA-winning portrayal won the approval of Simenon himself, who stated: "At last, I have found the perfect Maigret!" This three-disc-set includes all thirteen episodes of Season One, in which Maigret reckons with a Murder in Montmartre, The Burglar's Wife, and various other vexing cases that only the moody Maigret can solve. Maigret has been remastered in High Definition from original film elements and is featured here in its original fullscreen TV format.Blu-ray; full screen; 2.0 mono; requires Blu-ray player.
