Poor Folk by Fyodor Dostoevsky

Dostoyevsky displays great insight into human nature. This is one of the great novels of all time. A brilliant read.

Product Description

This novel brought its 24-year-old author critical and public acclaim nearly overnight. Written in the form of letters, it recounts a blossoming romance amid St. Petersburg's slums between a middle-aged writer and a much younger seamstress. Compact and easy to read, it represents an excellent introduction to Dostoyevsky's work.
