内容简介

小说描写19世纪60年代出身贵族的绝色女子娜斯塔霞常年受地主托茨基蹂躏，后托茨基愿出一大笔钱要把她嫁给卑鄙的加尼亚。就在女主人公的生日晚会上，被人们视为白痴的年轻公爵梅诗金突然出现，愿无条件娶娜斯塔霞为妻，这使她深受感动。在与公爵即将举行婚礼的那天，娜斯塔霞尽管深爱着公爵，但还是跟花花公子罗果仁跑了，结果遭罗果仁杀害。

In The Idiot, the saintly Prince Myshkin returns to Russia from a Swiss sanatorium and finds himself a stranger in a society obsessed with wealth, power, and sexual conquest. He soon becomes entangled in a love triangle with a notorious kept woman, Nastasya, and a beautiful young girl, Aglaya. Extortion and scandal escalate to murder, as Dostoevsky's "positively beautiful man" clashes with the emptiness of a society that cannot accommodate his innocence and moral idealism. The Idiot is both a powerful indictment of that society and a rich and gripping masterpiece.

From award-winning translators, a masterful new translation-never before published-of the novel in which Fyodor Dostoevsky set out to portray a truly beautiful soul.

作者简介

陀思妥耶夫斯基（1821-1881），与大文豪列夫·托尔斯泰、屠格涅夫等人齐名，是俄国文学的卓越代表，他走的是一条极为艰辛、复杂的生活与创作道路，是俄国文学史上Z复杂、Z矛盾的作家之一。他的创作独具特色，在群星灿烂的19世纪俄国文坛上独树一帜，占有着十分特殊的地位。主要作品有《穷人》、《被侮辱与被损害的》、《死屋手记》、《罪与罚》、《白痴》、《群魔》、《卡拉马佐夫兄弟》等。

Fyodor Mikailovich Dostoevsky's life was as dark and dramatic as the great novels he wrote. He was born in Moscow in 1821. A short first novel, Poor Folk (1846) brought him instant success, but his writing career was cut short by his arrest for alleged subversion against Tsar Nicholas I in 1849. In prison he was given the "silent treatment" for eight months (guards even wore velvet soled boots) before he was led in front a firing squad. Dressed in a death shroud, he faced an open grave and awaited execution, when suddenly, an order arrived commuting his sentence. He then spent four years at hard labor in a Siberian prison, where he began to suffer from epilepsy, and he returned to St. Petersburg only a full ten years after he had left in chains.
