Notes from the Underground (Royal Collector's Edition) (Case Laminate Hardcover with Jacket) Royal Collector's edition

Notes from the Underground presents itself as an excerpt from the rambling memoirs of a bitter, isolated, unnamed narrator, who is a retired civil servant living in St. Petersburg. The first part of the story is told in monologue form, and attacks emerging Western philosophy. The second part of the book describes certain events that appear to be destroying and sometimes renewing the underground man, who acts as a first person, unreliable narrator and anti-hero.

Notes from the Underground, is an 1864 novella by Fyodor Dostoevsky. Notes is considered by many to be one of the first existentialist novels. The narration by the Underground Man is laden with ideological allusions and complex conversations regarding the political climate of the time period. Using his fiction as a weapon of ideological discourse, Dostoevsky challenges the ideologies of his time, mainly nihilism and rational egoism. The seminal influence of the work has seen a wide impact on subsequent various works in the fields of philosophy, literature, and film.

This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.
