The House of the Dead or Prison Life in Siberia
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
- The House of the Dead is a fictionalized memoir of a man serving a ten-year prison sentence for murdering his wife and was written in 1861. Dostoyevsky drew heavily from his own four-year prison internment in a Siberian prison to draw attention to the dehumanizing, deadening effects of the modern prison system and invoke his philosophies of better ways of treating and rehabilitating prisoners.
