The master of Petersburg
by J. M. Coetzee

In 1869, Dostoevsky was summoned from Germany to St. Petersburg by the sudden death of his stepson. Coetzee dares to imagine the life of Dostoevsky, whom we watch as he obsessively follows his stepson’s ghost, trying to ascertain whether he was a suicide or a murder victim, and whether he loved or despised his stepfather. The novel is at once a compelling mystery steeped in the atmosphere of pre-revolutionary Russia, and a brilliant and courageous meditation on authority and rebellion, art and imagination.
