普希金逝世前一年发表了一部真实而深刻地反映普加乔夫农民起义的长篇小说《上尉的女儿》，这部小说不仅在他的全部创作中占有极重要的地位，而且也是最早介绍到我国来的俄国文学作品。清光绪二十九年（1903），这部小说被译为《俄国情史》，成为中俄文学交流的第一位使者。《上尉的女儿》以同情的笔调描写了18世纪普加乔夫领导的农民起义，是俄国文学史上第一部反映农民斗争的现实主义作品。 小说以贵族青年军官格里尼奥夫的个人遭遇为线索，再现了普加乔夫起义的历史。格里尼奥夫到边防炮台就职，中途为暴风雪所阻，偶然和普加乔夫结识，并送给他一件兔皮袄。后来，格里尼奥夫爱上了驻地上尉司令米隆诺夫的女儿玛丽亚。普加乔夫率领农民起义军，攻破炮台，杀死了司令夫妇，格里尼奥夫也被义军俘获。普加乔夫很重旧情，把他释放，并成全他的婚事.普加乔夫起义失败后，格里尼奥夫因此事受到怀疑，被政府逮捕。上尉的女儿玛丽亚谒见女皇叶卡捷林娜二世，澄清了怀疑，格里尼奥夫被释放。小说中的普加乔夫是一个勇敢机智，乐观豪迈，热爱自由，深受人民爱戴的农民起义领袖，具有坚强不屈的性格。本书深入地写出了俄国历史上一个重要时期的社会状况和矛盾斗争，体现了人民的力量和智慧的起义军领袖普加乔夫这一形象。 《上尉的女儿》语言朴素，简洁，将18世纪俄罗斯的风俗人情通俗流畅地展现在读者面前，果戈理说它是“俄罗斯最优秀的一部叙事作品”。

"I'm thirty-four! Worry about oblivion, he told himself, when you're seventy-five." Philip Roth's new novel is a fiercely intimate yet universal story of loss, regret, and stoicism. The best-selling author of The Plot Against America now turns his attention from "one family's harrowing encounter with history" (New York Times) to one man's lifelong confrontation with mortality. Roth's everyman is a hero whose youthful sense of independence and confidence begins to be challenged when illness commences its attack in middle age. A successful commercial advertising artist, he is the father of two sons who despise him and a daughter who adores him. He is the brother of a good man whose physical well-being comes to arouse his bitter envy. He is the lonely ex-husband of three very different women with whom he has made a mess of marriage. Inevitably, he discovers that he has become what he does not want to be. Roth has been hailed as "the most compelling of living writers… [His] every book is like a dispatch from the deepest recesses of the national mind." In Everyman, Roth once again displays his hallmark incisiveness. From his first glimpse of death on the idyllic beaches of his childhood summers, through his vigorous, seemingly invincible prime, Roth's hero is a man bewildered not only by his own decline but by the unimaginable deaths of his contemporaries and those he has loved. The terrain of this haunting novel is the human body. Its subject is the common experience that terrifies us all.

Treasure Island is an adventure novel by Robert Louis Stevenson, narrating a tale of "pirates and buried gold". First published as a book in 1883, it was originally serialised in the children's magazine Young Folks between 1881-82 under the title The Sea Cook, or Treasure Island. Traditionally considered a coming-of-age story, it is an adventure tale known for its superb atmosphere, character and action, and also a wry commentary on the ambiguity of morality—as seen in Long John Silver—unusual for children's literature then and now. It is one of the most frequently dramatised of all novels. The influence of Treasure Island on popular perception of pirates is vast, including treasure maps with an "X", schooners, the Black Spot, tropical islands, and one-legged seamen with parrots on their shoulders.　　《金银岛》(Treasure Island)作者是十九世纪出生在英国苏格兰爱丁堡，著名的文学作家罗伯特·路易斯·斯蒂文森（Robert Louis Stevenson）金银岛是他一生最畅销的小说之一。 　　作家的成名小说《金银岛》独树一帜，极富神奇浪漫色彩，其笔下的金银岛就是如今古巴的特别行政区：青年岛。他过去叫金银岛，也叫松树岛。在西班牙漫长的4个世纪殖民统治岁月里，那里是举世闻名的加勒比海盗呼啸聚众的天堂，那些逃犯和海盗在海上到处流窜，追击西班牙运输金银财宝和商货的船只，把抢来的金银财宝和商货运到这座荒无人烟的小岛上，藏于神秘的山洞里，慢慢享用。金银岛因此得名。 　　岛上到处是浓密的热带松林，松树岛也因此得名。森林里生活着中南美洲巨大的蜥蜴鬣蜥，硬毛鼠，背脊呈珊瑚状的鸽子、野猪和其他动物。海岸不规则，多小海湾，小海湾的名字无不与臭名昭著的海盗名字相连。海岛南部的海滩景色秀美，遐迩闻名，在埃斯特角6个著名的山洞里至今还保留着235幅远古土著印第安人的绘画；海地是奇特美丽的珊瑚地质构造，洞穴纵横。有无数管状海棉，五彩斑斓的各种鱼群，加勒比特色的海洋植物和丰富的海产品。这里是理想的潜水观赏海底世界的好地方。多种多样的动物群，主要是海鸥和海龟；还有鹈鹕、鹦鹉、啄木鸟、模仿鸟、金蜂鸟、苍鹭......。这里全年平均温度是摄氏27度，盛夏上升到28度，很少下雨。南长岛附近还有许多美丽的小岛。
