About This Item
NY: Riverhead Books , 2021. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. Andrew Kaufman’s newest book tells the amazing story of the relationship between Anna Snitkina and Fyodor Dostoyevsky. Kaufman’s research is thorough, and he has unearthed and translated relevant documents into English, some for the first time. Much of the story he tells is completely unknown to the general public. Scholars of Russian literature may know bits and pieces of it, but Kaufman brings the bits and pieces together with newly discovered documentation to flesh out the captivating story, turning the spotlight on Anna as an intelligent, independent woman who devotes her life completely to facilitating Dostoevsky’s literary success and protecting his legacy. INSCRIBED BY KAUFMAN on title page. Record # 372607
