| Summary |
"Tri Noveloj" by Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin is a collection of short stories written in the early 19th century. This work showcases Pushkin's mastery in narrative storytelling, featuring themes that explore the human condition, societal norms, and the intricacies of love and fate. The opening novel, titled "Pikreĝino," introduces us to characters engaged in a game of cards, setting the stage for intrigue and the unfolding of personal ambitions intertwined with chance. At the start of "Pikreĝino," we find a group of young officers gathered at the home of Narumov, playing cards late into the night. As they revel in their game, conversations spark about a legendary woman—Narumov's grandmother, who possesses an uncanny ability to predict card outcomes, leaving the others both intrigued and speculative about her secrets. With light humor, the characters discuss her past in Paris and the various fortunes connected to her life. The narrative sets the tone for exploration of luck, ambition, and perhaps darker undertones of manipulation as the central character, Herman, becomes increasingly fixated on learning the grandmother's secrets in pursuit of wealth and success, ultimately leading to unexpected consequences.
