Prince Myshkin is an epileptic. The self-important, self-serving members of society easily cast him aside. But by portraying these fatuous and shallow dignitaries of the upper classes in all their odium, Dostoevsky, himself a sufferer of epilepsy, gives Myshkin a high relief. Myshkin's honesty and piety stand him apart from his fellow human beings; indeed, he is a modern Christ among them. Written with warmth and sympathy, love and dark humor, The Idiot remains one of the great masterworks of Russian letters. For this edition, Constance Garnett's beloved translation was revised and updated by Elina Yuffa, who also supplied historical, textual, and biographical notes. Joseph Frank is Professor Emeritus at both Princeton and Stanford Universities and the world's leading Dostoevsky biographer.
