Description
F.M. Dostoevsky wrote the book of essays “Notes from the House of the Dead” shortly after his return from penal servitude. This unique document includes accounts of the fates of real prisoners whom the writer encountered during his forced labor, as well as many characteristic expressions and proverbs he heard from the mouths of inmates and soldiers. But it is also a profound philosophical work by an outstanding thinker, whose main idea is Freedom as a necessary condition for human existence. “Despite any measures, a living person cannot be made into a corpse,” the author of “Notes from the House of the Dead” insists.
