Completed six years after Dostoyevsky’s own term as a convict, The House of the Dead is a semi-autobiographical account of life in a Siberian prison camp, and the physical and mental effects it has on those who are sentenced to inhabit it.
Alexandr Petrovitch Goryanchikov, a gentleman of the noble class, has been condemned to ten years of hard labour for murdering his wife. He is little prepared for the cruel conditions and punishing temperatures, and struggles to integrate with the other prisoners, who claw for their sanity.
Fettered, hungry and isolated, Alexandr Petrovitch must find faith and hope if he is to make his way out alive, and resurrect himself from the ‘dead house’.

En av de bättre romanerna av Dostojevskij. Om man är nyfiken på hans mindre kända verk är detta en av dem jag rekommenderar. Boken må ej vara i samma klass som hans allra bästa verk men det är också ett tecken på hur bra dessa mästerverk faktiskt är.
