Description
Published in 2011, "Los demonios" is a novella by Fiódor Dostoievski, inspired by a notorious crime that took place in Moscow at the end of 1869. This event served as the foundation for the story's plot and character development.
The novel centres around Nikolai Stavrogin, a complex figure who has captivated readers for over a century. His presence introduces a philosophical and theological dimension to the narrative, elevating it beyond mere historical reconstruction or political diatribe.
Translated by Juan López-Morillas, "Los demonios" is a thought-provoking work that showcases Dostoievski's mastery of literary fiction.
