Marianne has a life others dream of. A beautiful townhouse on the best street in the neighbourhood. Three bright children who are her pride and joy. Sometimes her past still hurts: losing her mother early, growing up in foster care. But her husband, Simon, is always there. A successful surgeon, he’s the envy of every woman they’ve ever met. Flowers, gifts, trips to France: nothing is too good for his family. Then Simon says another woman’s name. The way he lingers on it, Caroline, gives Marianne a shudder of suspicion, but she knows it’s nothing - she can’t entertain this flash of paranoia.

He sees the better version of herself - the one she’s always wanted to be.

Dostoevsky studied human nature with passion and precision. He plumbed the depths and never winced at what he found, even when it was beyond his understanding. This extraordinary novel is a recital of his findings, told in the story of four brothers: Dimitri, pleasure-seeking, impatient, unruly; Ivan, brilliant and morose; Alyosha, gentle, loving, honest; and the illegitimate Smerdyakov, sly, silent, cruel. What give this story its dramatic grip is the part these brothers play in their father's murder.

Un uomo schivo, vile, che sopravvive a stento senza il sostegno di amici e senza riconoscimenti di nessun tipo, né a livello personale, né lavorativo, racconta di sé. Lui è in contrasto permanente con la società, e dal suo sottosuolo la osserva, la critica, anche se a volte desidera farne parte. Il più delle volte però si autocensura e si rifugia nel suo mondo sotterraneo popolato di fantasie sfrenate e deliranti che si alternano a stati di risentimento estremo, avallato dalla consapevolezza che la sofferenza è insita nell'essere umano pensante, e che per lui non c'è scampo.
