The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky (Russian: Братья Карамазовы,
Brat’ya Karamazovy, pronounced [ˈbratʲjə kərɐˈmazəvɨ]), also translated as
The Karamazov Brothers , is the last novel by Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky. Dostoevsky spent nearly two years writing
The Brothers Karamazov, which was published as a serial in
The Russian Messenger from January 1879 to November 1880. Dostoevsky died less than four months after its publication.
Set in 19th-century Russia,
The Brothers Karamazov is a passionate philosophical novel that enters deeply into questions of God, free will, and morality. It is a theological drama dealing with problems of faith, doubt, and reason in the context of a modernizing Russia, with a plot that revolves around the subject of patricide. Dostoevsky composed much of the novel in Staraya Russa, which inspired the main setting.
It has been acclaimed as one of the supreme achievements in world literature.
The opening of the novel introduces the Karamazov family and relates the story of their distant and recent past. The details of Fyodor Pavlovich’s two marriages, as well as his indifference to the upbringing of his three children, is chronicled.
The narrator also establishes the widely varying personalities of the three brothers and the circumstances that have led to their return to their father’s town. The first book concludes by describing the mysterious Eastern Orthodox tradition of the Elders. Alyosha has become devoted to the Elder at the local monastery.
