This time the author portrays a truly beautiful soul and one of Dostoevsky's greatest characters-Prince Muishkin, a saintly, Christ-like, yet deeply human figure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe story begins when Muishkin arrives on Russian soil after a stay in a Swiss sanatorium. Scorned by St. Petersburg society as an idiot for his generosity and innocence, the prince finds himself at the center of a struggle between a rich, kept woman and a beautiful, virtuous girl, who both hope to win his affection. Unfortunately, Muishkin's very goodness seems to bring disaster to everyone he meets. The shocking denouement tragically reveals how, in a world obsessed with money, power, and sexual conquest, a sanatorium is the only place for a saint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis version of \u003ci\u003eThe Idiot\u003c\/i\u003e is the translation by Eva Martin.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tantor Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47117503168752,"sku":"2940170715992","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940170715992_p0.jpg?v=1763815102","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940170715992","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
