The first part of the story is told in monologue form, and attacks emerging Western philosophy. The second part of the book describes certain events that appear to be destroying and sometimes renewing the underground man, who acts as a first person, unreliable narrator and anti-hero.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNotes from the Underground\u003c\/em\u003e, is an 1864 novella by Fyodor Dostoevsky. Notes is considered by many to be one of the first existentialist novels. The narration by the Underground Man is laden with ideological allusions and complex conversations regarding the political climate of the time period. Using his fiction as a weapon of ideological discourse, Dostoevsky challenges the ideologies of his time, mainly nihilism and rational egoism. The seminal influence of the work has seen a wide impact on subsequent various works in the fields of philosophy, literature, and film.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fyodor Dostoevsky\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1774762072\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781774762073\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Royal Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/02\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d","brand":"Fyodor Dostoevsky","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44049068097791,"sku":"9781774762073","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2fef505c-fef9-4c9c-bcff-fbbd101a56ee.jpg?v=1684999435","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/notes-from-the-underground-royal-fyodor-dostoevsky-9781774762073","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
