Description
When Fyodor Dostoevsky proclaims that he is a 'realist in a higher sense', it is because the facts are irrelevant to his truth. It is in this spirit that Apollonio approaches Dosteovsky's work, reading through the facts of his canonical novels for the deeper truth that they distort and mask.
