"That sense of the meaninglessness of existence that runs through much of twentieth-century writing—from Conrad and Kafka, to Beckett and beyond—starts in Dostoyevsky's work." —Malcolm Bradbury

Alienated from society and paralysed by a sense of his own insignificance, the anonymous narrator of Dostoyevsky's Notes from Underground tells the story of his tortured life. With bitter irony, he describes his refusal to become a worker in the 'anthill' and his gradual withdrawal from society. A masterly tragi-comic study of human consciousness, translated by Ronald Wilks.
