Publisher's Summary
"I am a sick man.... I am a spiteful man", a nameless voice cries out. And so, from underground, emerge the passionate confessions of a suffering man; the painful self-examination of a tormented soul; the bristling scorn of a lonely individual who has become one of the greatest anti-heroes in all literature.
In 1864, just prior to the years in which he wrote his greatest novels - Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, The Possessed, and The Brothers Karamazov - Fyodor Dostoevsky penned the darkly fascinating Notes from Underground. Its nameless hero is a profoundly alienated individual in whose brooding self-analysis there is a search for the true and the good in a world of relative values and few absolutes. Moreover, the novel introduces themes - moral, religious, political, and social - that dominated Dostoevsky’s later works.
Those who are familiar with his works will immediately recognize the novel's richly complex philosophical, political, and psychological themes; those who are not will find the best introduction to Dostoevsky's grander masterpieces.

The problem with the underground man is that he's a bit too human
An abashing anthology of accounts from 150 odd years ago that resonate all too well to this date in the heart of a troubled young man. Timeless. Well performed.

Brutal
Gem of a writer's hidden treasure of human conscience and two-faced character vivid in a disjointed assembly of notes.

Has left me speechless!
As the narrator goes deeper into his self examination you, too, feel the pressures of the underground building on your conscience. At times you despise the narrator but can still relate to him, and in that you despise yourself.

Story of My Life
Describes my life to the point. I am exactly the kind of person who thinks like the narrator and it really gave me a new perspective on how to look at life and people in common.
