"Dostoevsky, the only psychologist from whom I've anything to learn." - Friedrich Nietzsche
Dostoevsky's exploration of human psychology through fiction has captivated readers for over a century. This handsome jacketed hardcover brings together three of his most notable works:
• Crime and Punishment
• The Gambler
• Notes from Underground
Writing from the fraught political landscape of 19th century Russia, Dostoevsky explores corruption, morality and visions of a utopian society. These novels are at once gripping and profound.
ABOUT THE SERIES: The World Classics Library series gathers together the work of authors and philosophers whose ideas have stood the test of time. Perfect for bibliophiles, these gorgeous jacketed hardcovers are a wonderful addition to any bookshelf.

About the Author
Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821-81) was one of Russia's foremost writers, producing novels, short stories, essays and philosophical texts. Born in Moscow, he initially trained as an engineer, spending his spare time translating books. The publication of his first book, Poor Folk, saw him enter the literary circles of St Petersburg, but he developed a gambling habit as he toured around Europe and then fell foul of the Russian authorities who sent him into exile in Siberia in 1849 for reading banned works. Crime and Punishment was the second novel that Dostoevsky wrote after he returned from exile and its serialisation was considered a huge success, earning Dostoevsky many plaudits.
Constance Garnett (1861-1946) was a celebrated English translator of Russian literature, most notably the works of Anton Chekov and Fyodor Dostoevsky. Her translations received high acclaim from numerous critics and authors, including Joseph Conrad and D. H. Lawrence.
