Roaming from Tashkent to San Francisco, this is the true story of one budding writer's strange encounters with the fanatics who are devoted - absurdly! melancholically! ecstatically! - to the Russian classics. Combining fresh readings of the great Russians from Gogol to Goncharov with the sad and funny stories of the lives they continue to influence, The Possessed introduces a brilliant and distinctive new voice: comic, humane, charming, poignant and completely full of an infectious love for literature.

Гений Достоевского поистине универсален — в своих "малых" произведениях, как и в великих романах, он выступает и тонким психологом, и внимательным наблюдателем, и талантливым сатириком. Его Дядюшкин сон, Господин Прохарчин и Честный вор, в которых не однажды усматривали перекличку с Гоголем, исполнены горькой иронии, а вывернутая наизнанку жизнь глубинной провинции и петербургского дна заставляет читателя одновременно смеяться над недостатками героев и сопереживать им.

Story22
Dostoevsky's life was marked by brilliance and brutality. Sentenced to death as a young revolutionary, he survived mock execution and Siberian exile to live through a time of seismic change in Russia, eventually being accepted into the Tsar's inner circle. He had three great love affairs, each overshadowed by debilitating epilepsy and addiction to gambling. Somehow, amidst all this, he found time to write short stories, journalism and novels such as Crime and Punishment, The Idiot and The Brothers Karamazov, works now recognised as among the finest ever written.

Story12
Notes from the Underground is an 1864 existentialist novella written by the Russian author, Fyodor Dostoyevsky. The speaker, an unknown yet common type of man, writes in first person about his views on Western philosophy, as well as his stark analysis of his own life. The work is written as the ramblings of this retired government employee who seems to have a very pessimistic yet honest opinion on his own life, as well as the world as seen through his eyes.

Eugene Onegin is young, handsome, rich ... and bored. Nothing impresses him: not his grand house filled with expensive furniture, not the glittering balls he attends, not the sumptuous dinners he eats. When his uncle dies, leaving him his rundown estate, Eugene moves to the countryside. Here he meets the lively and intelligent Lensky, and the beautiful, quiet Tatyana. Will Eugene grasp this opportunity for a new and happy life, or will his bad attitude get in the way?

A desperate young man plans the perfect crime - the murder of a despicable pawnbroker, an old woman no one loves and no one will mourn. Is it not just, he reasons, for a man of genius to commit such a crime - to transgress moral law - if it will ultimately benefit humanity? So begins one of the greatest novels ever written: a powerful psychological study, a terrifying murder mystery, and a fascinating detective thriller infused with philosophical, religious, and social commentary.

Su protagonista es el profesor Pnin, un ruso de la emigración que se gana la vida dando clases a media docena escasa de alumnos desganados que acuden a su aula como quien va a ver una película de Buster Keaton.

Une nuit, une rencontre, une illusion. Dans les rues silencieuses de Pétersbourg, un rêveur solitaire croise Nastenka, jeune femme au cœur brisé. Ensemble, le temps de quelques nuits blanches, ils tissent l'espoir d'un amour possible. Mais derrière la beauté fragile de cette parenthèse nocturne, Fiodor Dostoïevski, figure majeure de la littérature russe, interroge le poids des illusions, la cruauté du réel, et l'éternelle soif d'absolu. Un court roman d'une intensité rare, où le romantisme se heurte à la mélancolie du quotidien.

Yuri Bezmenov (1939-January 5, 1993) was a Soviet journalist for RIA Novosti and a former KGB informant who defected to Canada in 1971. After being assigned to a station in India, Bezmenov eventually grew to love the people and the culture of India. At the same time, he began to resent the KGB-sanctioned repression of intellectuals who dissented from Moscow's policies and he decided to defect to the West. Bezmenov is best remembered for his anti-communist lectures and books published in the 1980s under the alias of Tomas David Schuman.

Игрок — произведение классика русской литературы и одного из лучших романистов мирового уровня Ф. М. Достоевского (1821–1881). Это захватывающая история азарта, ставшего для героя не просто смыслом игры в рулетку и даже не смыслом жизни, а просто основой бытия в состоянии постоянного психологического дискомфорта. Достоевский известен как автор многих выдающихся произведений: "Подросток", "Записки из мертвого дома", "Двойник", "Дядюшкин сон", "Идиот", "Братья Карамазовы", "Чужая жена и муж под кроватью", "Сон смешного человека", "Дневник писателя".

Anna Karenina has been described as the perfect Russian novel. Trapped in a loveless marriage, Anna Karenina is defenseless against the power of her passions once they are unleashed by the adoration of Count Vronsky. Having defied the rules of 19th century Russian society, Anna is forced to pay a heavy price. Human nature, with all its failings, is the fabric of which this great and passionate work is composed.
