About this listen

Fyodor Dostoevsky’s novella, White Nights, was originally published in 1848. The tender narrative is an appealing blend of realism and romanticism. A daydreamer, the hero is a lonely young man in Saint Petersburg who lives in a fantasy world. After a chance encounter, he falls in love with a young woman, Nastenka, whom he meets in the same place over four nights. Sharing a sense of alienation, they exchange information on their respective backgrounds and grow fond of one another in a short time. Touching on themes of isolation, unhappiness, chance, and chivalry, White Nights has an unexpected outcome.

The reader in the version is awful. It’s like he’s learning to read and getting paid to do it!

I couldn’t even listen to the story (although being a Dostoyevsky I assume it’s great). The reader is that bad. Save your money/credit.

Probably a great story
