1984 (Cover May Change)

The year is 1846. Young Dostoyevsky, as soon as he completes his first novel, The People, has his roommate, writer Grigorovich, read it. Grigorovich is so excited that he wants to get up several times and hug Fyodor's neck; but he doesn't do it because he knows that his friend doesn't like excessive emotional displays. The next day, Grigorovich writes the novel and takes it to the publisher Nekrasov; Nekrasov, who was very impressed by the book, also told the critic Belinski... "The new Gogol is born!" says, Nekrasov, still on the doorstep.

In the evening of the same day, he visits Belinsky again and finds him excited: "Where have you been? Where is your Dostoevsky? Is he young? How old is he? Bring him to me now!" Brought to Belinski's house, the twenty-three-year-old young writer will later describe what happened there: "And here... they took me to see him. I read Belinski with enthusiasm a few years ago, but it sounded creepy and harsh to me and made fun of my Manlets. He greeted me very respectfully and with dignity, but in less than a minute everything was different...

He spoke with fiery, fiery eyes. "Do you understand yourself?" he used to shout at me over and over again, "Do you understand what you have written?... Did you think of all this terrible truth, this truth that you have shown us? No way, there's no way a twenty-year-old like you could have understood all this... Truth. you have discovered and declared as an artist, you have been given a talent, appreciate your talent and be sure, you will be a great writer." The year is 2013. After 167 years, Dostoevsky remains one of the main authors of every generation, and The People are his first gift to world literature...
