""I love mankind, he said, ""but I find to my amazement that the more I love mankind as a whole, the less I love man in particular."" - Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov The Brothers Karamazov (1880) by Fyodor Dostoevsky renders a wonderful plot involving erotic rivalry in a series of triangular love affairs entailing the ""wicked and sentimental"" Fyodor Pavlovich Karamazov and his three sons-the red-cheeked young Alyosha, the coldly rational Ivan and the spontaneous and sensual Dmitri. The story takes an interesting turn when the mystery around a murder surfaces in the plot. The engrossing events in the lives of the characters expose the Russian life during the golden era of Russian history. ""The Brothers Karamazov stands as the culmination of Dostoevsky's art-his last, longest, richest, and most capacious book."" - The Washington Post
Autorenporträt
Fyodor Dostoevsky (born in Russia, in 1821) is one of the world's most influential authors, but he lived nearly as many lives as he created on the page. He was a trained military engineer. A civil servant with a side hustle translating manuscripts. A political prisoner and death row inmate serving time in a Siberian prison camp. A reluctant soldier. A journalist. A husband. A gambler on a constant cold streak. It's this lived experience that brings such unmatched depth to his writing-from exile to acclaim, success to suffering, imagination to dark self-destruction. Like his greatest protagonists, the author himself was occasionally detestable and frequently brilliant, and it was through this hard wrought lens that he explored some of life's most urgent themes: faith and free will, self-interest and moral duty, individual responsibility, loneliness, and love. During the lean years, Dostoevsky searched for life's meaning with the same ferocity he chased a lucky break, and his most famous books-Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, The Brothers Karamazov, and Notes from Underground-established him as one of the first existentialists. These works went on to inspire an entire movement, and great minds from Nietzsche to Virginia Woolf to Murakami. When Dostoevsky died at the age of 59, at the height of his literary fame, he had created more than a dozen novels, novellas, and countless short works. Nearly 200 years later, these stories are just as relevant and relatable-in our TikTok feeds and neighborhood book clubs-as they were in the boisterous taverns and literary circles of Imperial Russia. And as the world gets more chaotic and clamoring each year, Dostoevsky's voice becomes clearer.
