"Notes from the Underground" is a gripping psychological novella by Fyodor Dostoevsky that explores the inner turmoil of its unnamed narrator. Filled with existential musings, social criticism, and profound insights into the human condition, this classic work challenges conventional notions of rationality and progress. It's a thought-provoking read that continues to resonate with readers today. Underground* *The author of the diary and the diary itself are, of course, imaginary. Nevertheless it is clear that such persons as the writer of these notes not only may, but positively must, exist in our society, when we consider the circumstances in the midst of which our society is formed. I have tried to expose to the view of the public more distinctly than is commonly done, one of the characters of the recent past. He is one of the representatives of a generation still living. In this fragment, entitled 'Underground,' this person introduces himself and his views, and, as it were, tries to explain the causes owing to which he has made his appearance and was bound to make his appearance in our midst. In the second fragment there are added the actual notes of this person concerning certain events in his life. -AUTHOR'S NOTE.
