Dostoevsky: A Writer in His Time - Joseph Frank

Joseph Frank's award-winning, five-volume Dostoevsky is widely recognised as the best biography of the writer in any language - and one of the greatest literary biographies of the past half-century. Now Frank's monumental, 2500-page work has been skilfully abridged and condensed in this single, highly readable volume with a new preface by the author. 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.
