Fyodor Dostoevsky: Humiliated and Insulted

The name of F. M. Dostoevsky became one of the symbols of late 19th-century Russian culture. He was able to articulate the most essential, the most profound questions of human existence: what drives a person, what is their faith, and what is the direction of their search? He created a distinct type of novel for which it is difficult to find an exhaustive definition—psychological, socio-philosophical, ideological, polyphonic—so multidimensional are the author's works. The writer’s world fame was defined by five novels: "Crime and Punishment," "The Idiot," "Demons," "The Adolescent," and "The Brothers Karamazov." However, his other works, which can be called an overture to the great pentateuch, are no less interesting, as it was they that began Dostoevsky's agonizing reflections on the "mystery of man." This edition includes his debut novel "Poor Folk," which made the author famous overnight, the early novellas "The Double" and "White Nights," as well as the novels "Humiliated and Insulted" and "The Gambler," after the publication of which critics assigned Dostoevsky the most honorable place in the "humanistic" tradition of Russian literature.
