Poor Folk
Raamatust
A story told through letters. A life told through suffering.
Poor Folk is Fyodor Dostoevsky's debut masterpiece—an epistolary novel that tenderly explores the lives of the downtrodden in 19th-century St. Petersburg. Through letters exchanged between the aging clerk Makar Devushkin and his distant cousin Varvara, Dostoevsky reveals a world of quiet heartbreak, dignity, and social despair .
This is more than a love story—it's a cry against injustice, a lament of those crushed by poverty but rich in humanity. The novel introduced Dostoevsky to the literary world and foreshadowed the psychological depth that would define his later works.
Why readers connect deeply with this classic:
✔ «A raw, humane portrait of poverty's psychological weight.»
✔ «A powerful example of early Russian realism.»
✔ Perfect for fans of Dickens, Hugo, and Gorky
