Book Overview
2022 Reprint of the 1918 edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Alienated from society and paralyzed by a sense of his own insignificance, the anonymous narrator of Dostoevsky's groundbreaking Notes from Underground tells the story of his tortured life. With bitter irony, he describes his refusal to become a worker in the 'anthill' of society and his gradual withdrawal to an existence 'underground'.

Notes from Underground Mentions in Our Blog
Fyodor Dostoyevsky's successful first book, Poor Folk, came out 175 years ago today when the author was only 24 years old. But in a life beset by drama worthy of, say, a Russian novel, it would be many years before he produced a notable follow-up. Here we explore the literary giant’s best books and how they mirror his extraordinary life.
