Notes From the Underground by Fyodor Dostoevsky

#3 for 2011

Notes from the Underground by Fyodor Dostoevsky
which has the novella Notes from the Underground as well as the short stories White Nights and Dream of a Ridiculous Man and excerpts from The House of the Dead.

This one is interesting as it has some of his earlier work along with one of his last- I think it is his last- short stories. I have to say that I prefer his later work, but I did enjoy reading the earlier things (some reminded me of Kafka a bit) and seeing how his writing and perspective grew/changed over time.
