The Idiot (Part 01 and 02): illustrated Edition

The Idiot (Part 01 and 02) as you haven't seen it before -- in a remarkable illustrated edition.

On a misty November morning, a train rushes toward St. Petersburg, carrying a most peculiar passenger—Prince Lev Myshkin, a man who has spent years in Switzerland recovering from epilepsy. He returns to Russia with nothing but a small bundle of clothes and an innocent heart, unaware that he is stepping into a world teeming with greed, betrayal, and passion.

In the glittering salons of high society, Myshkin’s kindness and unfiltered honesty make him an enigma. Some see him as a fool; others, a saint. But when he crosses paths with the fiery and tragic Nastasya Filippovna, a woman haunted by scandal and desire, his life takes a fateful turn. As she teeters between destruction and redemption, so too does Myshkin—caught in a dangerous rivalry with the vengeful Parfyon Rogozhin, a man whose love burns with the force of madness.

A tale of innocence thrust into the jaws of corruption, The Idiot is Dostoyevsky’s most profound exploration of human nature. It asks: Can purity survive in a world built on deception? And is love a force of salvation—or destruction?

Prepare to be drawn into a psychological masterpiece where virtue clashes with vice, and the fate of a man—and a woman—rests on the razor’s edge of obsession.
