Poor Folk, the author's first great literary triumph, is the story of a tragic relationship between an impoverished copy clerk and a young seamstress, told through their passionate letters to each other. In The Landlady Dostoyevsky portrays a dreamer hero who is captivated by a curious couple and becomes their lodger. Mr Prokharchin, inspired by a true story, is a sly comedy centring on an eccentric miser, and Polzunkov is a powerful character sketch which, in common with the other tales in this volume, questions the very nature of existence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780140445053\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e Height: 0.68503936938 Inches, Length: 8.5039369992 Inches, Weight: 0.4629707502 Pounds, Width: 5.4330708606 Inches\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fyodor Dostoyevsky","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51863318724915,"sku":"9780140445053","price":15.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/3636\/7411\/files\/27338303482237.jpg?v=1754194028","url":"https:\/\/bookabaloo.com\/products\/poor-folk-and-other-stories","provider":"Bookabaloo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
