Carefully preserving the original work's acclaimed narrative style and combination of biography, intellectual history, and literary criticism, this title illuminates the author's works from his first novel "Poor Folk" to "Crime and Punishment" and "The Brothers Karamazov" by setting them in their personal, historical, and ideological context.
