Overview
Published early on in Dostoyevsky’s career, White Nights is a short novella that delves into the labyrinth of human emotion, leaving the reader grappling with the profound and our connection with one another.
''An easy first dip of the toe into the somewhat daunting pool of classic Russian literature… This book has resonated with so many new readers this year.''‘Why, one thanks some people for being alive at the same time with one; I thank you for having met me, for my being able to remember you all my life!’
Over the span of four soft, blissful nights, a lonely and nameless narrator takes the reader on a journey spent getting to know a young woman, Nastenka, found crying under a bridge in St Petersburg. Promising not to develop a romantic affection towards one another, the pair develop a relationship that will have a deep impact on one another.
