<p>An intense novel. Abuse, compassion, love and crimes of passion all feature in this gripping novel, written by Dostoevsky. Inevitable fate, tenderness and harshness, the glow of a tormented soul, weave themselves into charged dramas throughout the book. The main character is Prince Myshkin, a person who is good and gentle in every respect. On returning to Saint Petersburg after spending four years in a sanatorium in Switzerland, he is immediately confronted with the fierce passions of people for whom everything is determined by career, status, rank and money. Can unconditional goodness survive in a corrupt, materialistic world? A unique book.</p><p>Literature &amp; Music, “The Idiot” by F. Dostoevsky.
