Notes from Underground. Eternal Stories
The unnamed protagonist is intelligent, ready to debate with his contemporaries and denounce the vices of the age, but presents himself as a contradictory... and unreliable narrator. Reflecting on his past youth, he traces his tragic yet inevitable path to social underground.
"Notes from Underground" not only preceded Dostoevsky's "great pentateuch" but also anticipated ideas of existential philosophy.
The book also includes the story "A Gentle Creature." It tells about the life of a woman raised in poverty who is forced to marry a moneylender. This is the internal monologue of the main character, his candid account of life with his wife — the Gentle Creature. The story reveals themes of love, self-sacrifice, cruelty, and moral dilemmas faced by the characters.
The edition features a stylish design by modern artists in the Young Adult style.
