White Nights (ENGLISH EDITION)

Feeling isolated and abandoned by the world, a young man who calls himself a dreamer wanders the streets of St. Petersburg during the city's long summer nights. There, by chance, he encounters a young woman in tears. He approaches her and rescues her from the unwanted advances of a stranger.

They agree to meet again the following evening, and as they begin to share the stories of their lives, the dreamer finds himself falling deeply in love with his newfound companion.

First published in 1848, White Nights is one of Fyodor Dostoevsky's most beloved early works. A timeless tale of loneliness, longing, and the human need for genuine connection, it offers a poignant exploration of hope, love, and heartbreak. Through its profound insight into the complexities of the human soul, the novella foreshadows many of the ideas that would later shape twentieth-century thought, including psychoanalysis and existentialism.
