Uncle.s Dream and The Permanent Husband

Within Uncle& 39;s Dream and The Permanent Husband are two of Dostoyevsky& 39;s novellas. Uncle& 39;s Dreams is narrated with objectivity, satire, and social reportage in its comic send-up of small-town manners and morals. It has been described as& 34;one of the most powerful studies of despair in world literature, a banging on closed doors imagined with absolute fearlessness.& 34;The Permanent Husband involves a psychotic game of cat-and-mouse I which Velchaninov feverishly wonders what Pavel Pavlovitch knows about his late wife& 39;s affair. Fyodor Dostoyevsky was a Russian writer and philosopher whose literary works explore human psychology in the context of the troubled political, social, and spiritual atmosphere of 19th-century Russia.
