What Is to Be Done?

How often this question arises on the lips of each of us… Written in the 19th century, Chernyshevsky’s novel can provide an answer to such a pressing question.

Here you can see the author’s socialist views, a model of revolutionary, fundamentally new relations for that time — the story will go about relations between a woman and a man and about the relations between participants in commodity production.

At first, the text of the novel passed censorship and was published, because critics saw in it nothing but a love story. But behind these lines, the author’s deep revolutionary ideas were still hidden.
