Dive into the depths of human nature with this beautifully illustrated edition of Fyodor Dostoevsky's timeless classic, "The Idiot." This version not only brings to life the vivid world of the novel through 20 striking illustrations but also enriches your reading experience with a detailed summary, a comprehensive list of characters, and an engaging biography of the author himself.
Dostoevsky's "The Idiot" is among his most thought-provoking and engrossing pieces. The story of Prince Lev Nikolayevich Myshkin, a man whose immaculate innocence and purity set him apart in a world steeped in egoism, greed, and vanity, is told against the backdrop of 19th-century Russia. Despite being viewed as a "idiot" due to his naivete and epilepsy, Myshkin turns out to be a Christ-like figure who personifies compassion in a society where materialism and moral rot are rampant.
As Myshkin finds himself entangled in a complex web of love, betrayal, and existential despair, Dostoevsky masterfully explores themes of innocence, virtue, and the often blurred line between sanity and madness. The novel's rich tapestry of characters—from the tragic Nastasya Filippovna to the passionately conflicted Parfyon Rogozhin—offers a profound insight into the human psyche and the societal norms of the time.
This edition, with its carefully curated illustrations, invites you to visualize Dostoevsky's narrative in vivid detail. The accompanying summary and character list serve as valuable guides through the intricate plot and cast, enhancing your understanding and appreciation of this literary masterpiece.
Immerse yourself in the world of "The Idiot," where Dostoevsky's exploration of faith, redemption, and the eternal struggle of good versus evil remains as relevant today as it was in the 19th century. This illustrated edition is not just a book; it's a journey into the heart of human complexity, a must-have for both long-time Dostoevsky enthusiasts and new readers alike.

    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.

    Stolen kisses and secret reunions lead to a passion that civil war cannot sever in this glorious historical romance from the bestselling author of Caress.   Beautiful, proud Audra Brennan feels like a stranger in a foreign land when she comes north from Louisiana to study music. But when she savors her first forbidden taste of desire in the arms of handsome lawyer Lee Jeffreys, his caresses spark a flame within her that burns away the differences between rebel and Yankee, all objections silenced by the fierce beating of two wild hearts falling impetuously, impossibly in love.   Suddenly cannon fire shatters the country. Principled, impassioned, and committed to a nation united, Lee answers the call to fight against the Confederacy, while Audra hurries home to a plantation shadowed by the darkening cloud of war. But in the most terrible of circumstances, can either afford to surrender their heart?   “Power, passion, tragedy and triumph are Rosanne Bittner’s hallmarks. Again and again, she brings readers to tears.” —RT Book Reviews
