Dostoevsky's Occasional Writings

This classic collection of articles, sketches, and letters spans thirty-three years in Fyodor Dostoevsky's writing career: from 1847, just after the successful publication of his first novel, until 1880, a year before his death. These writings show the broad scope of Dostoevsky's artistic development and the changes that occurred as a result of such cataclysmic events as his arrest and trial for treason and his subsequent imprisonment and exile in Siberia.
