About the book
He wanted greatness – but first, he had to survive himself.
In A Raw Youth, Fyodor Dostoevsky explores the turbulent world of adolescence and the torment of self-discovery through one of his most psychologically complex characters.
The novel follows Arkady Dolgoruky, a young man consumed by ambition, pride, and an unrelenting desire to prove his worth to the world – and to his estranged father. As he navigates love, betrayal, and the moral chaos of society, Arkady's idealism clashes with the corrupt forces of wealth and power surrounding him.
Rich in introspection and emotional conflict, A Raw Youth is both a coming-of-age story and a profound study of the human soul – filled with Dostoevsky's signature insight into guilt, freedom, and the eternal battle between reason and passion.
Sweeping, tragic, and deeply human, this is one of Dostoevsky's most underrated masterpieces – a portrait of youth torn between idealism and despair.
