ISBN: 9781857151824.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet in mid 19th-century Russia, Demons examines the effect of a charismatic but unscrupulous self-styled revolutionary leader on a group of credulous followers.Inspired by the true story of a political murder that horrified Russians in 1869, Fyodor Dostoevsky conceived of Demons as a “novel-pamphlet” in which he would say everything about the plague of materialist ideology that he saw infecting his native land. What emerged was a prophetic and ferociously funny masterpiece of ideology and murder in pre-revolutionary Russia–a novel that is rivaled only by The Brothers Karamazov as Dostoevsky’s greatest.\n\nThe award-winning translators Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky continue their acclaimed series of Dostoevsky translations with this novel, also known as The Possessed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Everyman's Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45118126456885,"sku":"ByrdShop_1857151828","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781857151824_b295ffc1-3e4b-4202-999b-2862aef111c2.jpg?v=1778737818","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/demons-9781857151824","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
