Fyodor Dostoevsky is known as the author of some of the most important Russian novels of the 19th Century. His greatness is his command of a multitude of human factors, from the most saintly to the most pathological, delineating the deepest emotional states from the perversely criminal and the profoundest sense of evil to a sublime belief in a Christian God. Throughout, as this biography shows, he never became detached from the realities of the Russian world. Book jacket.
