For readers seeking deep philosophical insights in fiction

Challenges your understanding of goodness in society

You will reflect on compassion and human nature profoundly

Dostoevsky's "Idiot" explores the beauty of goodness amidst societal chaos.

In the character of Prince Myshkin, Dostoevsky, master of the philosphical novel, set himself the task of depicting "the positively good and beautiful man." The novel examines the consequences of placing such a unique individual at the centre of the conflicts, desires, passions and egoism of worldly society, both for the man himself and for those with whom he becomes involved. The result is, according to A.C. Grayling, "one of the most excoriating, compelling and remarkable books ever written; and without question one of the greatest."
