About White Nights and Other Stories
“When I woke up it seemed as though some musical motive long familiar, heard somewhere in the past, forgotten and voluptuously sweet, had come back to me now. It seemed to me that it had been clamouring at my heart all my life.”
This collection brings together seven superb shorter works by Dostoevsky, including: White Nights, about a lonely young man living in Saint Petersburg, Notes from Underground, a novella following the memoirs of a retired civil servant, and Mr. Prohartchin, depicting the miserly life of the protagonist. A finely nuanced, enduring collection of classic stories from the Russian master, and an unmissable read.
Dostoevsky's literary works examine human psychology against the backdrop of Russia's turbulent political, social, and spiritual history in the nineteenth century. Constance Garnett's translation from the original Russian is widely regarded as an authoritative version.
