Dostoyevsky's Notes From The Underground

MAY CONTAIN MARKUP

BY LESLIE SHEPARD

Dostoyevsky's Notes From The Underground, published in 1864, is a seminal work in existentialist literature. The novella delves into the psyche of an unnamed narrator, a bitter and isolated former civil servant living in St. Petersburg. Through his disjointed and rambling narrative, the protagonist explores themes of alienation, free will, and the nature of rationality. With its deep psychological insights and existential ponderings, Notes From The Underground remains a profound and thought-provoking read that continues to resonate with readers today.

Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment

MAY CONTAIN MARKUP

By John D. Simons.

Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment offers a gripping exploration of the psychological complexities of a young man named Rodion Raskolnikov, who rationalizes a brutal murder in pursuit of his own twisted sense of justice. Set against the backdrop of 19th-century St. Petersburg, the novel delves into themes of morality, guilt, and redemption, inviting readers to contemplate the fine line between good and evil. As Raskolnikov navigates the consequences of his crime and grapples with his conscience, Dostoyevsky weaves a narrative that is as thought-provoking as it is timeless.
