Universal Dostoevsky

Russian writer who united the world

Patrick Wise came first in the annual Dostoevsky Games when he was a student. The contest is held among the leading universities in North Carolina, which is among the main centres in the US for studying Dostoevsky.

At the same time, Dostoevsky’s fans confess that reading him makes them want to “better themselves”. What’s his secret?
