«Chacun de vous a une lourde tâche à accomplir. Vous êtes appelés à rénover une société décrépite et puante : que cette pensée stimule continuellement votre courage ! Tous vos efforts doivent tendre à ce que tout s'écroule, l'État et sa morale. Nous resterons seuls debout, nous qui nous sommes préparés depuis longtemps à prendre le pouvoir en main. Nous nous annexerons les gens intelligents, et pour ce qui est des imbéciles, nous monterons sur leur dos. Cela ne doit pas vous troubler. Il nous faudra rééduquer la génération actuelle pour la rendre digne de la liberté.»

First Sentence
"BEFORE DESCRIBING THE EXTRAORDINARY EVENTS WHICH took place so recently in our town, hitherto not remarkable for anything in particular, I find it necessary, since I am not a skilled writer, to go back a little and begin with certain biographical details concerning our talented and greatly esteemed Stepan Trofimovich Verkhovensky."
Work Description
Also known as Demons or The Devils, this is Dostoyevsky’s most political novel. Though critical of the left-wing revolutionaries, split as they often were into disparate factions and cells the author also tacitly rebukes the conservative elite for failing to come to terms with the high levels of disaffection in the country, a stance that would ultimately lead to their downfall.
