The Idiot – Audiolbook

Listen to a sample

What to expect

The Idiot is one of Fyodor Dostoevsky's most profound and philosophical novels, exploring the nature of goodness in a world driven by selfishness and ambition. The story follows Prince Lev Myshkin, a man of extraordinary kindness and sincerity, who returns to Russia after years of medical treatment abroad. His innocence and honesty set him apart from the manipulative society he encounters, where people view his goodness as either weakness or foolishness. As Myshkin navigates the complexities of high society, he becomes entangled in a web of relationships, each testing his ideals and moral strength. Dostoevsky uses his protagonist to pose fundamental questions about human nature, love, and the struggle between purity and corruption. The Idiot is a moving and thought-provoking novel that challenges readers to consider whether true goodness can survive in a world filled with deception and cruelty.
