« The Idiot » is a classic novel written by the renowned Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky. First published in 1869, this literary masterpiece explores the complexities of human nature and society through the character of Prince Lev Nikolayevich Myshkin.
At the heart of the story is Myshkin, a kind-hearted and inherently good man who, after spending years in a Swiss sanatorium, returns to Russia. His innocence and simplicity are in stark contrast to the morally corrupt and self-serving society he encounters in St. Petersburg. As he navigates the intricate web of social relationships and intrigues, Myshkin’s character serves as a prism through which Dostoevsky explores themes of love, passion, mental illness, and the moral decay of society.
« The Idiot » is a deeply philosophical novel that delves into the human psyche and raises profound questions about the nature of goodness and the consequences of living in a world where morality is often compromised. Dostoevsky’s writing is both eloquent and thought-provoking, making this novel a timeless and essential read for those interested in exploring the depths of human consciousness and the complexities of human relationships.
