More about the book
The narrative centers on Prince Lev Nikolayevich Myshkin, a compassionate and morally pure man returning to Russia after treatment for epilepsy. Misunderstood as an "idiot" by society, he becomes entangled in a love triangle with the passionate Rogozhin and the troubled Nastasya Filippovna. As he navigates the complexities of a materialistic world, his idealism starkly contrasts with the greed and selfishness of those around him. Dostoevsky's work offers a poignant exploration of innocence amid the societal changes of 19th-century Russia.
