Is this one of the works that are untranslatable like Eugene Onegin, I'm not sure. Could be.
Ostap Bender is now one of my favourite characters. I've suspicion he might be a sociopath, someone you would wish to avoid in real life but as fictional character it's hard not to like him. He is very charming.
Osip Shor (Осип Шор) - the prototype of Ostap Bender. Interesting personality.
