Read by Yakovlev Valery

&lt;em&gt;Krasavitse&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;, &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;Kotoraya Niuhala Tabak (To a Beautiful woman, Who Was Smelling Tobacco)&lt;/em&gt;is a small poem written by Alexander Pushkin, a famous russian poet well known outside the Russia. The author describes in a fun and artistc way the conflict between an image inside of his head of the beautiful and lovely women on the one hand, and her action - smelling tobacco - on the other hand! Can anyone imagine the more incompatible things than a clean and bright woman and a dirty toy of alcoholics and sailors - tobacco! This conflict hit the author straight into his heart, so he couldn't ignore it and wrote this amazing poem upon such a revelational theme. (Summary written by Yakovlev Valery)
