House of the dead

In this work, Dostoyevsky describes the tragedies, sorrows, pains, and lost hopes that he spent in that barracks in that remote, remote place in Russia. Indeed, as he says, he was struck by an "inquisitive frenzy." He studied the prisoners and studied their condition, from their whims, evils, goodness, and even their movements, and he came up with something to say. Of cleverness and patience (there are evil people everywhere, but the evil ones themselves contain good! And who knows, these people may not be worse than others who are at large and free..) and he added (..I said that to myself while shaking my head in bewilderment.! And I was not I know to what extent you were right! Dostoyevsky was in his exile thinking and wondering about the condition of the prisoners whom the Russian people call "the unlucky ones." How could he not be in this condition when thought and literature never left him, neither before nor after his imprisonment? Rather, I am almost certain that he did. The only one out of the two hundred people crammed into the squalid barracks, I would say the only one who had extensive knowledge and tremendous knowledge. I wrote this only out of the many questions that prisoners throw at him when they meet him behind the barracks with the only prison dog, Polo. They ask him, for example, about the meeting of the two sides of the earth, or they ask him about America, or about Napoleon and his relationship with those before him.

أحد أشهر الأدباء الروس ( 1821-1881م).. عمل لفترة من حياته الأدبية كمترجم للروسية وصحفي، لكنه عرف عالمياً بنصوصه خاصة الروايات الطويلة منها :
الأخوة كارامازوف والأبله والجريمة والعقاب؛ حيث انتهج فيها أسلوباً تحليلياً دقيقاً للحالة النفسية لكل من الفرد والمجتمع، مسلطاً الضوء على خبايا النفس الإنسانية.
