A Raw Youth

Can idealism survive in a world ruled by power and pride?

A Raw Youth is a masterful and often overlooked Dostoevsky novel that explores the internal chaos of a young man searching for purpose, truth, and identity in a world of manipulation and deceit ⚖.

Arkadiev Dolgoruky, the illegitimate son of a Russian aristocrat, is caught between conflicting ideologies—his father's amoral ambition and his own desperate desire for moral purity. In this gripping psychological drama, Dostoevsky deconstructs generational conflict, pride, faith, and nihilism with unmatched intensity.

Why readers embrace this lesser-known Dostoevsky gem:

✔ «A raw, unsettling portrait of youthful pride and philosophical struggle.»

✔ «Perfect for fans of Notes from Underground, Demons, and The Brothers Karamazov.»

✔ An essential classic of Russian literature and existential thought
