A towering literary giant, Fyodor Dostoyevsky was -- and remains -- unparalleled in his understanding of the darkness that resides in the farthest corners of the human soul. Although his shorter works have been overshadowed by his astonishing novels -- Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov, to name but two -- his stories and novellas deserve a place among the great literary inventions of the modern era, offering insight into the themes and ideas that drive his longer fiction. Included in this volume are some of Dostoyevsky's most troubling, moving, and poignant short works.
