The Double

254 pp. Blue hardback in an unclipped dust jacket. Darkening to rear of jacket and minimal rubbing to spine ends of jacket. Light strip of offsetting to endpapers, but a clean copy. No ownership markings or annotations. Dostoevsky's second novel, written in 1845-46 in his mid-twenties. Concerned with the splitting of the personality in the vein of 'Jekyll and Hyde' and 'Perrin and Traill', Dostoevsky remained convinced of its importance to the final years of his life, when he wrote that he had not put forward a more serious idea in his literature.
