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.

Dostoyevskian greatness
5By yyddcc00000101Great novel. And though extremely sad at times, it greatly portrays the human condition; death, illness, disappointment, poverty....and all that comes with it.
