OCCUPATION: Novelistshort story writer,essayist

NOTABLE WORK: Crime and PunishmentThe IdiotThe Brothers Karamazov

BIRTH: MoscowNovember 11, 1821

WRITING STYLE: Dostoyevsky displayed a nuanced understanding of human psychology in his major works. He created an opus of vitality and almost hypnotic power, characterized by feverishly dramatized scenes where his characters are frequently in scandalous and explosive atmospheres, passionately engaged in Socratic dialogues. The quest for God, the problem of evil and suffering of the innocents haunt the majority of his novels.

IMPACT: James Joyce and Virginia Woolf praised his prose. Ernest Hemingway cited Dostoyevsky as a major influence on his work.
