The Adolescent (Vintage Classics)

The narrator and protagonist of Dostoevskyâ€™s novel The Adolescent (first published in English as A Raw Youth) is Arkady Dolgoruky, a naâ€¢ve 19-year-old boy bursting with ambition and opinions. The illegitimate son of a dissipated landowner, he is torn between his desire to expose his fatherâ€™s wrongdoing and the desire to win his love. He travels to St. Petersburg to confront the father he barely knows, inspired by an inchoate dream of communion and armed with a mysterious document that he believes gives him power over others. This new English version by the most acclaimed of Dostoevskyâ€™s translators is a masterpiece of pathos and high comedy.
