Presented as a series of letters between the humble copying-clerk Devushkin and a distant relative of his, the young Varenka, Poor People brings to the fore the underclass of St Petersburg, who live at the margins of society in the most appalling conditions and abject poverty. As Devushkin tries to help Varenka improve her plight by selling anything he can, he is reduced to even more desperate circumstances and seeks refuge in alcohol, looking on helplessly as the object of his impossible love is taken away from him.

费奥多尔·米哈伊洛维奇·陀思妥耶夫斯基（1821年11月11日—1881年2月9日），俄国作家。

陀思妥耶夫斯基出生于小贵族家庭，童年在莫斯科和乡间度过。1846年发表di一部长篇小说《穷人》，受到高度评价。1848年发表中篇小说《白夜》。1849年因参加反农奴制活动而被流放到西伯利亚，在此期间发表有长篇小说《被侮辱和被损害的》《罪与罚》《白痴》《群魔》《卡拉马佐夫兄弟》等作品。

陀思妥耶夫斯基的小说戏剧性强，情节发展快，接踵而至的灾难性事件往往伴随着复杂激烈的心理斗争和痛苦的精神危机，以此揭露出资产阶级关系的纷繁复杂、矛盾重重和深刻的悲剧性。

Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821-1881) is considered one of the greatest writers of all time. His works include such seminal novels as Crime and Punishment, The Idiot and The Brothers Karamazov.
