Author:Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky

Fyodor Dostoyevsky
(1821–1881)

Russian novelist and writer of fiction, have had a profound and lasting effect on intellectual thought and world literature. Dostoevsky's literary output explores human psychology in the troubled political, social and spiritual context of 19th-century Russian society. Considered by many as a founder or precursor of 20th century existentialism, his Notes from Underground (1864), written in the embittered voice of the anonymous "underground man", was named by Walter Kaufmann as the "best overture for existentialism ever written."
