Poor Folk
Original title: Бедные люди (Russian)
Credits: Фёдор Михайлович Достоевский (author)
Summary
Makar Devushkin, an aging copying clerk, and Varenka, a young seamstress, live across a courtyard and write to each other about their troubles. Dostoevsky’s first novel, told entirely through letters, is a quiet study of poverty and dignity. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur.
