About this audiobook
"The mystery of human existence lies not only in staying alive but in finding something to live for."
Dostoyevksy's last and greatest novel,
The Brothers Karamazov, is a compelling combination of brilliantly told crime story and passionate philosophical debate that explores the complex relationships and moral dilemmas faced by the deeply dysfunctional Karamazov family.
The story revolves around the lives of three brothers—passionate, impulsive Dmitri (Mitya), coldly sceptical Ivan, and caring, selfless Alexei (Alyosha)—and their tumultuous relationship with their father, Fyodor Pavlovich Karamazov, a dissolute and selfish man. When Fyodor is murdered, Dmitri is accused of the crime, and through the ensuing investigation and trial, Dostoevsky explores concepts of faith, doubt, guilt, innocence, and the complexities of human nature, highlighting the struggle between faith, materialism and intellectualism and mirroring the broader ideological clashes of late 19th-century Russia.
The Brothers Karamazov is a masterwork of nineteenth-century fiction that explores the spiritual and philosophical elements of the human experience against a backdrop of historical upheaval. Its wide-ranging influence over the years has included artists, writers, scientists and philosophers and its profound contemplation of complex themes continues to resonate today.
Fyodor Dostoyevsky was a Russian novelist, journalist, and short-story writer renowned for his profound explorations of psychology, morality, and the human condition. Born in Moscow, his tumultuous life was marked by early literary success and followed by arrest and exile due to his radical political activities. He is widely regarded as one of the world's finest novelists, penning classics that include
Crime and Punishment,
The Idiot,
Demons, and
The Brothers Karamazov. His work has had an immense influence on 20th-century fiction and his ideas have profoundly shaped literary modernism, existentialism, and various schools of psychology, theology, and literary criticism.
