The Raw Youth ebook

A story of passion, pride, and the painful awakening of youth, Fyodor Dostoevsky's The Raw Youth (also known as The Adolescent) is a profound exploration of identity, morality, and the eternal struggle between idealism and corruption. The novel follows Arkady Dolgoruky, a 19-year-old illegitimate son of a self-made man, as he dreams of greatness and spiritual freedom. Torn between the influence of his ambitious father, his own lofty ideals, and the temptations of worldly success, Arkady's journey becomes a mirror of human conflict—between purity and sin, rebellion and redemption. Through his vivid characters and philosophical insight, Dostoevsky delves into the restless energy of youth and the torment of self-discovery. The Raw Youth is both a coming-of-age story and a psychological portrait of society in transition—a world obsessed with wealth, power, and moral compromise. Often overlooked beside Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov, this late masterpiece reveals Dostoevsky's enduring genius for capturing the inner struggles of the human soul. 👉 Click Buy Now to experience Dostoevsky's stirring tale of ambition, conscience, and the awakening of the human spirit.
