"Poor Folk" is Fyodor Dostoevsky's debut novel that revolves around the poignant correspondence between two impoverished characters, Makar Devushkin and Varvara Dobroselova. Set in 19th-century St. Petersburg, the novel unfolds through letters exchanged between the two protagonists, revealing their struggles with destitution, societal expectations, and the challenges of maintaining their dignity in the face of poverty. As their relationship deepens, the novel provides a compassionate exploration of the human spirit's resilience amid adversity, while shedding light on the harsh realities faced by the lower classes in Russian society during the author's time. Dostoevsky's "Poor Folk" serves as an early glimpse into the themes of empathy, social injustice, and psychological depth that would come to define his later, more renowned works.
