Pushkin in Manhattan
You might know that in Manhattan there is a lavish Russian restaurant Onegin (http://www.oneginnyc.com/). That is a family name of a literary character created by Pushkin, Great Russian poet. Onegin was a rich indolent hustler who shot viciously an innocent poet in a duel.
I bet you don’t know that Americans believe that the word Onegin is actually Pushkin’s cute mishmash of two words: One & Gin.
Ha-ha!
