White Nights is a short story by Fyodor Dostoevsky that was published in 1848. Set in St. Petersburg, it is the story of a young man fighting his inner restlessness. A light and tender narrative, it delves into the torment and guilt of unrequited love. Both protagonists suffer from a deep sense of alienation that initially brings them together. A blend of romanticism and realism, the story appeals gently to the senses and feelings.
To be honest this book really surprised me because I was expecting to suffer through this book as I did while reading “Crime And Punishment”.
This short story ab out a man who falls in love with a stranger she swore to not fall in love with.
This book had few good moments, but other than that I found it uninteresting. Yes ive enjoyed reading this book, but I didn’t like it as much.
There were times while reading this book that I needed to remind myself when it was written because some of the things in this book are very outdated.
I personally found the narrator in this book to be annoying at times. And there were times where I thought that the narrator was highly depressed due to the phrasing the narrator used.
Nastenka is a 17 year old who is very manipulative. Which really made me hate her very fast.
I Give This Book 2 / 5
