The House of the Dead (Penguin Classics)by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Fictionalised account of the time Dostoyevsky spent in a Siberian prison camp. Translated by David McDuff.
Synopsis:The four years that Dostoevsky spent in a Siberian prison camp were brutish and long, the most agonizing of his life. But there is a vitality that overtakes the house of the dead, turning the crisis of its narrator into a slow miracle: the return and reawakening of his personality. About the AuthorFyodor Dostoyevsky (1821-1881), one of nineteenth-century Russias greatest novelists, spent four years in a convict prison in Siberia, after which he was obliged to enlist in the army. In later years his penchant for gambling sent him deeply into debt. Most of his important works were written after 1864, including Notes from Underground, Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, and The Brothers Karamazov, all available from Penguin Classics. David McDuff was educated at the University of Edinburgh and has translated a number of works for Penguin Classics, including Dostoyevskys The Brothers Karamazov.
