The Idiot by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Prince Lev Nikolayevich Myshkin finds himself at the center of a struggle between a beautiful kept woman and a virtuous and pretty young girl, both of whom win his affection. Unfortunately, Myshkin's very goodness precipitates disaster, leaving the impression that, in a world obsessed with money, power, and sexual conquest, a sanatorium may be the only place for a saint. Fyodor Dostoyevsky was a Russian writer and philosopher whose literary works explore human psychology in the context of the troubled political, social, and spiritual atmosphere of 19th-century Russia. | The Idiot by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
