Poor Folk (Translated)

This audiobook presents a carefully adapted version of Dostoevsky’s debut novel, capturing the emotional depth and social realities of nineteenth-century St. Petersburg through modern, engaging prose. It follows the tender correspondence between Makar Devushkin, a poor clerk, and Varvara Dobroselova, a fragile young woman, exploring themes of dignity, love, and social inequality amid their struggles with poverty and insecurity. Richly textured and faithful to the original’s spirit, the narration immerses listeners in a world of human vulnerability, compassion, and emotional resilience.
