The House of the Dead by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
ISBN: 9780140444568 PUBLISHER: Penguin Books Ltd FORMAT: Paperback PAGES: 368 PUBLICATION DATE: 26.09.1985 DIMENSIONS: 198mmX129mmX21mm 269grams
DESCRIPTION: The four years that Dostoevsky spent in a Siberian prison camp were nasty, brutish and long, the most agonizing of his life. Its documentary detail - the convicts and their fascinating stories, the wooden plank bed that they sleep on, the cabbage soup swimming with cockroaches that they eat - is made all the more vivid by the controlled, oddly impersonal tone of the narrator. He, like the others, had stepped beyond himself to commit his crime. He found his strange family of convicts boastful, ugly, vain, cruel and ludicrously obsessed with outward appearances. But it is their 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.
