Description
The Idiot: New Translation by Fyodor Dostoevsky After years spent recovering from illness, Prince Myshkin arrives in St Petersburg, confronting the harsh realities of life. His childlike naivety is both mocked and valued as he becomes entangled with two women in a situation he cannot resolve. Dostoevsky's portrayal of human nature is complex and multifaceted, as seen through the character of Prince Myshkin. The Idiot is populated by an unforgettable cast of characters, each with their own story to tell. This novel is one of Dostoevsky's most personal works, exploring our relationships with others in all their contradictions. A thought-provoking and intense work of fiction, The Idiot offers a nuanced exploration of the human mind and its many complexities.
