Fyodor Dostoyevsky, one of Russia’s most celebrated novelists, is known for his unparalleled ability to probe the depths of the human soul. His works vividly portray humanity's struggles with morality, free will, faith, and despair, leaving an indelible mark on global literature. British author Virginia Woolf described his novels as “seething whirlpools” and “gyrating sandstorms” that pull readers into their emotional and psychological intensity. Woolf even ranked Dostoyevsky second only to Shakespeare, underscoring his immense influence. While some critics, such as Vladimir Nabokov, dismissed his frenzied and unpolished style, his work remains a cornerstone of philosophical and literary thought.
