Uncle's Dream; And The Permanent Husband
Bok av Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Within Uncle's Dream and The Permanent Husband are two of Dostoyevsky's novellas.
Uncle's Dreams is narrated with objectivity, satire, and social reportage in its comic send-up of small-town manners and morals. It has been described as "one of the most powerful studies of despair in world literature, a banging on closed doors imagined with absolute fearlessness."
The Permanent Husband involves a psychotic game of cat-and-mouse I which Velchaninov feverishly wonders what Pavel Pavlovitch knows about his late wife's affair.
Fyodor Dostoyevsky was a Russian writer and philosopher whose literary works explore human psychology in the context of the troubled political, social, and spiritual atmosphere of 19th-century Russia.
