Poor Folk and Other Stories - (Penguin Classics) by Fyodor Dostoyevsky (Paperback)

This collection of early short stories by Fyodor Dostoyevsky is a must-read for anyone interested in the themes that would later come to define his major novels.

"Poor Folk," the author's first great literary triumph, tells the tragic story of a poor copy clerk and a young seamstress through their passionate letters to each other.

In "The Landlady," Dostoyevsky portrays a dreamer hero captivated by a curious couple and becomes their lodger.

"Mr Prokharchin," inspired by a true story, is a sly comedy centering on an eccentric miser, and "Polzunkov" is a powerful character sketch that questions the very nature of existence.

With their penetrating psychological insight and emphasis on human dignity, respect, and forgiveness, these stories showcase Dostoyevsky's unique talent for exploring the complexities of human relationships.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to experience the genius of one of literature's greatest masters.
