Its nameless hero is a profoundly alienated individual in whose brooding self-analysis there is a search for the true and the good in a world of relative values and few absolutes. Moreover, the novel introduces themes -- moral, religious, political and social -- that dominated Dostoyevsky's later works. \u003ci\u003eNotes from the Underground\u003c\/i\u003e, then, aside from its own compelling qualities, offers readers an ideal introduction to the creative imagination, profundity and uncanny psychological penetration of one of the most influential novelists of the nineteenth century. Constance Garnett's authoritative translation is reprinted here, with a new introduction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dover Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/21\/1992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780486270531\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.28h x 5.24w x 0.26d","brand":"Fyodor Dostoyevsky","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36637705928860,"sku":"9780486270531","price":4.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_b9a6f1ba-ebf2-4702-8fba-86a05e07d33d.jpg?v=1603845481","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/notes-from-the-underground-9780486270531","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
