White Nights. Dostoevsky F.M.

Fedor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky (1821–1881) - Russian writer, philosopher and publicist; One of the most read authors in the world. His work influenced many thinkers of the 20th century, including Jean-Paul Sartre and Friedrich Nietzsche. Having passed the difficult life path, he gave the world a lot of works, a distinctive feature of which can be called the unbearably deep sadness of the truly Russian soul.

in “white nights”, a dreamy hero, torn from life and small deeds so exciting others, meets A young girl who brightens his loneliness. He lives on a small salary and holds an insignificant position. Due to the fact that the life of the protagonist is joyless and not to see it with a bright future, he runs away into his own world of fantasies, in which someone else, capable of understanding him, finally appears. The most popular topics of that time are raised in the stories, namely: “little man” and “dreamer” of a big city.
