Description
The Idiot by Fyodor Dostoevsky is a seminal work of Russian literature that explores human psychology during 19th-century Russia. Originally published as a serial in "The Russian Messenger" between 1868 and 1869, this novel tells the story of Lev Nikolayevich Myshkin, whose simple goodness is misinterpreted by those around him.
Considered one of Dostoevsky's four masterpieces written after his return from exile, "The Idiot" examines the complexities of human nature and the consequences of societal misconceptions. This volume is a worthwhile read for fans of Russian literature and anyone interested in Dostoevsky's seminal work.
Due to its rarity, this edition is now available in an affordable and modern format, complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author. A great opportunity to explore one of Russia's most renowned literary figures.
