A stunning book packed with thought-provoking ideas, amazing statements, and elegant sentences, "Notes from the Underground" is a novel written by Fyodor Dostoevsky in 1864. Yet it remains as fresh and relevant today as the day it was first published. It is the first existentialist novel, a sarcastic, self-effacing account of a man living by his own terms - the "Underground Man" - who narrates his thoughts and ideas to the reader as he walks the dark streets of a city's underworld. ¿

Autorenporträt
Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky was born in Moscow in 1821. His debut, the epistolary novella Poor Folk (1846), made his name. In 1849 he was arrested for involvement with the politically subversive 'Petrashevsky circle' and until 1854 he lived in a convict prison in Omsk, Siberia. From this experience came The House of the Dead (1860-2). In 1860 he began the journal Vremya (Time). Already married, he fell in love with one of his contributors, Appollinaria Suslova, eighteen years his junior, and developed a ruinous passion for roulette. After the death of his first wife, Maria, in 1864, Dostoevsky completed Notes from Underground and began work towards Crime and Punishment (1866). The major novels of his late period are The Idiot (1868), Demons (1871-2) and The Brothers Karamazov (1879-80). He died in 1881.
