Pobre Gente / Poor Folk [Spanish]

« Ay, amigo m o La desdicha es una enfermedad contagiosa .

Makar D vushkin, un modesto funcionario de San Petersburgo, y Varvara Dobrosi lova, una joven hu rfana marcada por la pobreza y la desprotecci n, sostienen a trav s de sus cartas un v nculo hecho de ternura, pudor, necesidad y sacrificio. En los peque os gestos se revelan afectos y humillaciones, esperanzas fr giles y derrotas silenciosas, pero la irrupci n de un antiguo conocido y la promesa de una salida socialmente segura ponen a prueba ese fr gil equilibrio.

Con una gran sensibilidad hacia quienes viven en los m rgenes, Dostoievski convierte esta correspondencia en una indagaci n conmovedora sobre la dignidad, la verg enza y la compasi n. Esta edici n cuenta con una cuidada traducci n a cargo de Raquel Marqu s, as como con un pr logo de Tamara Djermanovic, escritora y catedr tica en Filolog a Eslava de la Universitat Pompeu Fabra, que sit a esta primera novela del autor en el nacimiento de una nueva mirada literaria: la de los humillados y los invisibles.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Oh, my friend Misfortune is a contagious disease."

Makar Devushkin, a modest civil servant in St. Petersburg, and Varvara Dobroselova, a young orphan marked by poverty and vulnerability, sustain through their letters a bond woven from tenderness, restraint, need, and sacrifice. In small gestures, affection and humiliation, fragile hopes and quiet defeats come to light--until the sudden appearance of an old acquaintance and the promise of a more socially secure future put that delicate balance to the test.

With profound sensitivity toward those living on the margins, Dostoevsky turns this correspondence into a moving meditation on dignity, shame, and compassion. This edition features a careful translation by Raquel Marqu s, as well as a foreword by Tamara Djermanovic, writer and professor of Slavic Philology at Pompeu Fabra University, who places the author's first novel at the dawn of a new literary perspective: that of the humiliated and the invisible.
