Now Frank's monumental, 2,500-page work has been skillfully abridged and condensed in this single, highly readable volume with a new preface by the author. Carefully preserving the original work's acclaimed narrative style and combination of biography, intellectual history, and literary criticism, \u003ci\u003eDostoevsky: A Writer in His Time\u003c\/i\u003e illuminates the writer's works--from his first novel \u003ci\u003ePoor Folk\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eCrime and Punishment\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Brothers Karamazov\u003c\/i\u003e--by setting them in their personal, historical, and above all ideological context. More than a biography in the usual sense, this is a cultural history of nineteenth-century Russia, providing both a rich picture of the world in which Dostoevsky lived and a major reinterpretation of his life and work.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Princeton University Press","offers":[{"title":"Dostoevsky: A Writer in His Time | Joseph Frank | Paperback | 9780691155999 | New | Biography 1562741","offer_id":67720160903320,"sku":"1562741","price":37.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71zd48dXwEL.jpg?v=1792042957","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/dostoevsky-a-writer-in-his-time","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
