About Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1821-81) was educated in Moscow and at the School of Military Engineers in St. Petersburg, where he spent four years. In 1846, he wrote his first novel, Poor Folk; it was an immediate critical and popular success. This was followed by short stories and the novel The Double. While at work on Netochka Nezvanova, the twenty-seven-year-old author was arrested for belonging to a young socialist group. He was tried and condemned to death, but at the last moment his sentence was commuted to prison in Siberia. He spent four years in the penal settlement as Omsk. In 1859, he was granted full amnesty and allowed to return to St. Petersburg. In the fourteen years before his death, Dostoyevsky produced his greatest works, including Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, The Possessed, and The Brothers Karamazov. The last was published a year before his death.
About Fyodor M. Dostoevsky
Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821-1881) was a giant of Russian literature and a devout Orthodox Christian. His passionately energetic, psychologically perceptive, and religiously profound novels and short stories--which include classics like Crime and Punishment, Notes from Underground, The Idiot, and The Brothers Karamazov--have rightfully earned him renown as one of the greatest fiction writers of all time.
