From the back cover:

"The Diary's radical format was matched by the extreme range of it's contents. In a single frame A Writer's Diary was to combine an astonishing variety of material: short stories; humorous sketches; reports on sensational crimes; historical predictions; portraits of famous people; autobiographical pieces; and plans for stories, some of which were never written..."

From the back cover description:

"...Diary began as a column in a literary journal, but by 1876 Dostoevsky was able to bring it out as a complete monthly publication with himself as editor, publisher, and sole contributor, suspending work on The Brothers Karamozov in order to do so"

#RussianLit #Volume1 #TheSeedsOfRevolt (1821-1849)

"Of all the great Russian writers of the first part of the 19th Century... Dostoyevsky was the only one who did not come from a family belonging to the landed gentry. This is a fact of great importance, and influenced the view he took of his own position as a writer "(6 ).
