1821–1881
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821–1881) wrote about guilt, faith, and radical ideas in Tsarist Russia, from a young dreamer’s four nights with a stranger to a family’s murder trial that becomes an argument about God. His major novels are all in the public domain in Constance Garnett’s English translations, free and unabridged in IO reader.
