Description
The Idiot – Fyodor Dostoevsky
Discover The Idiot by Fyodor Dostoevsky, a profound psychological classic about innocence, compassion and the conflict between moral goodness and a corrupted society.
Prince Lev Myshkin returns to Russia after receiving medical treatment abroad. Kind, honest and unusually compassionate, he enters a world shaped by pride, ambition, jealousy and social competition. His openness causes others to see him as naïve, yet his presence exposes the hidden motives and emotional wounds of those around him.
As Myshkin becomes entangled in the lives of the troubled Nastasya Filippovna and the passionate Rogozhin, the novel develops into a powerful exploration of love, obsession, suffering and moral responsibility.
This English paperback edition is ideal for readers of Dostoevsky, Russian literature, psychological fiction and philosophical classics.
