With an afterword by Roger W. Phillips,
With author and period chronology,

Dostoyevsky's stories, which were overshadowed by his novels for a long time, prove that the author is a great master in this genre. Dostoyevsky's stories are woven with the building blocks of the deep and complex world on which the author's great novels are based. From "A Meek Girl", which tells about a young girl in depression on the verge of suicide, to "A Yufka Yürek", which deals with the fear of extinction of an engaged young man, from "Crocodile", which draws a ridiculous portrait of an intellectual who has fallen away from society, to "Mr. Proharçin", which depicts a poor man full of secrets. In this book, which compiles fourteen stories written between 1847 and 1877, Dostoyevsky leans into the touching, complex and entertaining sides of the human soul and whispers the tips for a virtuous life.
"Dostoevsky is the only psychologist from whom I learned anything."
-Friedrich Nietzsche-
