Order of Fyodor Dostoevsky Books
Fyodor Dostoevsky [or Dostoyevsky] (1821-1881) was a Russian author of novels, short stories and essays, in addition to being a journalist and philosopher. His works explore the psychology of 19th-century Russian society. Fyodor Dostoevsky was born in Moscow and read fairy tales and legends both by Russian and non-Russian authors. In 1849, he was arrested due to his involvement with the literary discussion group Petrashevsky Circle. Fyodor and others were sentenced to die, but at the last moment, a note from Tsar Nicholas I was delivered, dropping the sentence down to four years of hard labour in Siberia. His health worsened during this time, eventually being diagnosed with epilepsy. Along with Leo Tolstoy, Dostoevsky is considered one of the most influential authors of the Golden Age of Russian literature.
