DEAD SOULS
by Nikolai Gogol
As Gogol’s wily antihero, Chichikov, combs the back country wheeling and dealing for “dead souls,” we are introduced to a Dickensian cast of peasants, landowners, and conniving petty officials.

THE BROTHERS KARAMAZOV
“[This work] stands as the culmination of his art—his last, longest, richest and most capacious book.” —The Washington Post Book World

CRIME AND PUNISHMENT
This is a murder story—a cat-and-mouse game between a tormented young killer and a cheerfully implacable detective. It is an investigation of the forces that impel man toward sin, suffering, and grace.

DEMONS
Inspired by the political murder that horrified Russia in 1869, Fyodor Dostoevsky conceived Demons as a “novel-pamphlet” in which he would say everything about the plague of materialist ideology that he saw infecting his native land.

NOTES FROM UNDERGROUND
“I am a sick man … I am a wicked man.” This sentence began one of the most revolutionary novels ever written, a work that marks the frontier, not only between nineteenth- and twentieth-century fiction, but between two centuries’ vision of the self.
