New York: The Macmillan Company, [no date] c.1916. Hardcover, gray cloth boards. Good/No Jacket. Scarce early American edition. 637 pages, from the Russian by Constance Garnett. Title page is undated, but this is from the uniform edition (7.5"" tall) of The Novels of Fyodor Dostoevsky (Volume III) published in the 1910s, states that 'other volumes [are] in preparation,' and includes a folded Macmillan advertisement of their 'New 1916 Novels.' Small Brentano's sticker on rep. Wear to covers, especially darkened spine, endpapers spotted, front hinge cracking. Also known as The Devils or The Demons, and originally published in 1871-2, this is the violent and bloody tale of the sinister hero Stavrogin, a powerful example of Dostoevsky's 'great sinner who has lost his faith.' The novel follows the strange life of Nikolay Stavrogin, a brilliant and attractive but sterile & nihilistic man, with a parallel plot line tracing the revolutionary movement in Russia.
