Some of Pushkin's work is readily available in English (The short stories, Evgenii Onegin, and a few poems), but I have never seen an English translation of the few short plays he wrote. I wonder if P.D.Q. Bach's one act opera, "The Stoned Guest" got its title from Pushkin's Don Juan play, "The Stone Guest"? Someone must be reading these plays. -- J.E. Grass U. of Illinois- Urbana
