The unnamed narrator of the novel, a former government official,
has decided to retire from the world and lead a life of inactivity
and contemplation. His fiercely bitter, cynical and witty monologue
ranges from general observations and philosophical musings to
memorable scenes from his own life, including his obsessive plans
to exact revenge on an officer who has shown him disrespect and a
dramatic encounter with a prostitute. Seen by many as the first
existentialist novel and showcasing the best of Dostoevsky's dry
humour, Notes from Underground was a pivotal moment in the
development of modern literature and has inspired countless
novelists, thinkers and film-makers.
