Dostoevsky Without Gloss

“Dostoevsky Without Gloss” is a collection of memories about the writer and philosopher Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky (1821–1881), left by his contemporaries, as well as fragments of his correspondence, revealing to us Dostoevsky the thinker, the author of the great pentateuch, and Dostoevsky the family man, father and husband, telling about his genius and fame, illnesses and weaknesses, wanderings around the world and relentless spiritual quests, in other words — about his life in all its fullness.
