The Gambler

Fyodor Dostoevsky

Casa editrice: Zenith Whispering Pines Publishers

Sinossi

A man in love. A man in debt. A man who can't stop chasing the one thing that keeps destroying him.
When tutor Alexei Ivanovich becomes entangled with a wealthy family obsessed with money and status, he is drawn into a whirlwind of passion, humiliation, and the intoxicating thrill of the roulette table. As debts grow and emotions spiral, Alexei's desire—for love, for luck, for power—pushes him toward choices that threaten to consume him entirely.

Praised as "a fiercely honest portrait of addiction and desire," this novel carries the raw energy of Dostoevsky's own struggles. It captures the fever of gambling, the chaos of unrequited love, and the psychological unraveling of a man trapped by his impulses.

If you crave intense emotional conflict, sharp social insight, and a story that races with tension, this classic will keep you turning pages.

Open the book—and step into a world where every spin of the wheel feels like fate.

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.
