Достоевский Федор Михайлович: Игрок. Дядюшкин сон. Скверный анекдот

47,00 $

“The Gambler” occupies a special place in Dostoevsky’s work, because the plot is largely based on the writer’s personal experience, and, by his own admission, he experienced many of the feelings of the main character himself. This is the story of the spiritual death and fall of a man who is addicted to the game to the point of madness. For the sake of his passion, the player puts everything on the line – faith, love and even life…

The story of the creation of the novel is also noteworthy: having lost to the last penny in Wiesbaden, desperately in need of money, Dostoevsky signed a contract with the publishing house, according to which he had to write the novel… in 26 days. These completely implausible deadlines forced Dostoevsky, for the first time in his life, to use the services of a stenographer secretary to whom he dictated the text. This is how young Anna Snitkina entered the life of the genius – the woman who was destined to become his wife and muse…

The collection also included the tragic and mocking “Bad Anecdote.”

«Игрок» занимает особое место в творчестве Достоевского, ведь сюжет во многом основан на личном опыте писателя, а многие чувства главного героя он, по собственному признанию, испытал сам. Это история духовной гибели и падения человека, на грани безумия увлеченного игрой. Ради своей страсти игрок ставит на карту всё — веру, любовь и даже жизнь…

Примечательна и сама история создания романа: проигравшийся до последнего гроша в Висбадене, отчаянно нуждающийся в деньгах Достоевский заключил с издательством контракт, согласно которому должен был написать роман… за 26 дней. Эти совершенно неправдоподобные сроки вынудили Достоевского, впервые в жизни, воспользоваться услугами секретаря-стенографистки, которой он надиктовывал текст. Так в жизнь гения вошла молодая Анна Сниткина — женщина, которой суждено было стать его женой и музой…

В сборник также вошел трагический и насмешливый «Скверный анекдот».
