Explanation of the book
Golyadkin is a person with a double personality... whoever sees him from the outside calls him crazy and that is enough.. As for Dostoevsky, he sees him from the inside, and lives with him his psychological experience, and therefore he hardly laughs at him. On the contrary, it highlights the tragic side in the life of a person who is suffering, not only because of social injustice, but also because of a mental illness that may be related to social injustice. Whoever is not able, at a minimum, from personal experience, to see what Dostoevsky sees in his hero from the inside, will not be able to know all the psychological depth in his portrayal of this hero’s personality with the insightful eye and the skillful feather.
