DOSTOEVSKY [DOSTOYEVSKY] (Fyodor).
Buried Alive, or Ten Years of Penal Servitude in Siberia.
A sharp copy of the first English translation of this novel based on Dostoevsky’s own experiences of exile in a Siberian prison camp, best-known under the title The House of the Dead. The translation was originally published in Britain earlier in the same year, and was the only of Dostoevsky’s works to appear in English translation during his own lifetime.
Faint uniform browning to paperstock, contents otherwise clean and unmarked, some light shelf wear to extremities, small patch of brow marking to spine, rear hinge slightly loose and just starting to split at head, cords still holding firmly.
