Notes from the Underground Notes from the Underground
Автор: Жанр: Dover Publications Издательство: Dover Publications Год: 1992 Страниц: 91 Дата загрузки: 26 мая 2009
   Dostoevsky's most revolutionary novel, Notes from Underground marks the dividing line between 19'th and 20'th century fiction, and between the visions of self each century embodied. One of the most remarkable characters in literature, the unnamed narrator is a former official who has defiantly withdrawn into an underground existence. In full retreat from society, he scrawls a passionate, obsessive, self-contradictory narrative that serves as a devastating attack on social utopianism and an assertion of man's essentially irrational nature. Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, whose Dostoevsky translations have become the standard, give us a brilliantly faithful edition of this classic novel, conveying all the tragedy and tormented comedy of the original.
