The Dream of a Ridiculous Man

By Fyodor Dostoyevsky

The Dream of a Ridiculous Man cover

A lonely man has come to believe that life has no meaning. One night, after refusing to help a desperate little girl, he is troubled by a feeling he thought he had lost: guilt. As he falls asleep, he experiences a strange and powerful dream that takes him far beyond ordinary reality. In this philosophical short story, Dostoyevsky explores despair, conscience, innocence, and the possibility of redemption. Dark, visionary, and deeply emotional, it follows a man who believes himself ridiculous.
