FROM THE PUBLISHER-A grim prophecy of the Russian Revolution ‘What I am writing now is a tendentious thing', Dostoyevsky wrote to a friend in connection with his first outline for The Devils. ‘I feel like saying everything as passionately as possible. (Let the nihilists and the Westerners scream that I am reactionary! ) To hell with them. I shall say everything to the last word. ' As Dostoyevsky predicted, THE DEVILS, or THE POSSESSED, was indeed denounced by radical critics as the work of a reactionary renegade. But radicals aside, it enjoyed great success both for its literary power and for its explicit and provocative politics; and for its story of Russian terrorists plotting violence and destruction, only to murder one of their own number. inventory #29733.
