From a young age, he was introduced to literature by way of fairy tales and folk tales narrated to him. After completing his studies, Dostoevsky became a sub-lieutenant. In 1843, he began to work as a lieutenant engineer. His first piece of writing, a translation of Balzac’s Eugénie Grandet, was published in the same year. Poor Folk, Dostoevsky’s first novel was published in 1846.Between 1846 and 1849, Dostoevsky wrote works that were face-paced narratives. His short stories were featured regularly in Annals of the Fatherland, such as ‘The Landlady’, ‘A Weak Heart’, and ‘Wild Nights’. Dostoevsky also published a monthly magazine Vremya under the editorship of his brother. Borne out of Dostoevsky’s traumatic experiences and the misery of his general life and constant poverty, sprung out his masterpiece—Crime and Punishment. Dostoevsky wrote many other notable works such as Notes from the Underground (1864), Idiot (1868-69), The Possessed (1873), The Adult (1875), and The Brothers Karamazov (1881), which was his last work. On February 9, 1881, Dostoevsky breathed his last after he suffered multiple haemorrhages.","brand":"Fingerprint","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48759462068453,"sku":"NP9789358567021","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9789358567021.jpg?v=1775598638","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/greatest-short-stories-of-dostoevsky-isbn-9789358567021","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
