He was exiled for his liberal views on serfdom and autocracy, but this allowed him the freedom to write some of his greatest works, including the novel in verse Eugene Onegin. He died in 1837 after being fatally wounded in a duel. Antony Wood (Translator) is an editor and translator from Russian and German, and also runs the publishing house Angel Books.
