THE DOUBLE by Fyodor Dostoevsky: EPITOME

Abridged by Pietro Caracciolo

This concise and faithful epitome captures all the intensity, psychological depth, and haunting atmosphere of Dostoevsky's original masterpiece. The Double follows the descent of Yakov Petrovich Golyadkin, a civil servant who meets his exact lookalike-an unnerving figure who begins to invade every corner of his life.

Balancing fidelity to the 19th-century text with a gripping, accessible narrative, this version brings Dostoevsky's exploration of identity, madness, and alienation to a wider audience without losing its power or essence.
