The Duel

Aleksandr Kuprin

The Duel — Young officer Yuri Romashov is sickened by the cruelty and moral emptiness of a remote Russian garrison while falling for Shurochka, another officer’s wife. Aleksandr Kuprin turns the doomed attraction into a powerful critique of military life, humiliation, and violence that moves inexorably toward a duel.
