Description
The Adolescent: New Translation by Fyodor Dostoevsky In this thought-provoking novel, Dostoevsky explores the complexities of identity and societal expectations through the story of Arkady Versilov. Born out of wedlock to a landowner and his maid, Arkady struggles to find his place in 1870s Russia, where old systems and values are being challenged by new ideological currents. As a coming-of-age tale and a novel of ideas, The Adolescent delves into themes such as the relationship between fathers and sons and the role of money in modern society. Dostoevsky's masterful observation of the workings of a young man's mind makes for a compelling read. Presented here in a brand-new translation by Dora O'Brien, this edition offers a fresh perspective on Dostoevsky's work as a social commentator.
