NOTES
A Novel About Opposites. 'The Hero of Our Time,' Grigory Alexandrovich Pechorin is actually a traditional antihero who destroys the life of others around him. He is a 19th-century Casanova who can't find peace and happiness, often contemplating on the meaning of life and destiny. His story is seen through many eyes, a fellow brother-in-arms, the narrator and ultimately Pechorin himself. How will he end up, as a misunderstood hero or as a vile villain?
