A struggling writer stumbles on a cemetery where the dead still talk to each other. An arrogant but well-intentioned gentleman provokes an uproar at an aides wedding, and in the marital bed. And a young boy finds unexpected salvation on a cold and desolate Christmas Eve.This vivid new translation by Nicolas Pasternak Slater and Maya Slater illuminates Dostoevskys dazzling versatility as a writer. His remarkable short fiction swings from wickedly sharp humour to gripping psychological intensity, from cynical social mockery to moments of unexpected tenderness.
