Highly rated and critically acclaimed, it remains a must-read for those seeking a profound literary experience. ## Description Translated by Constance Garnett with an Introduction by A.D.P. Briggs. In 1869 a young Russian was strangled, shot through the head and thrown into a pond. His crime? A wish to leave a small group of violent revolutionaries, from which he had become alienated. Dostoevsky takes this real-life catastrophe as the subject and culmination of Devils , a title that refers the young radicals themselves and also to the materialistic ideas that possessed the minds of many thinking people Russian society at the time. The satirical portraits of the revolutionaries, with their naivety, ludicrous single-mindedness and readiness for murder and destruction, might seem exaggerated - until we consider their all-too-recognisable descendants in the real world ever since. The key figure in the novel, however, is beyond politics. Nikolay Stavrogin, another product of rationalism run wild, exercises his charisma with ruthless authority and total amorality. His unhappiness is accounted for when he confesses to a ghastly sexual crime - in a chapter long suppressed by the censor. This prophetic account of modern morals and politics, with its fifty-odd characters, amazing events and challenging ideas, is seen by some critics as Dostoevsky's masterpiece. Review: ❤️ - Slow start but definitely worth it. It grows in value in the time after reading it. Great characterisation and a book you’ll remember. Although I would suggest buying another translation, NOT the Garnett one Review: It's a challenging read, to say the least. - I have spent nearly five months reading Devils. I'll finish the final 50 pages by tomorrow. At 700 pages it is marathon. The book is character rich and the complicated Russian names are a challenge as well. The subject matter is quite parallel to 2024 world events. Read the book with a sharp pencil and a highlighter for notations and emphasis. This is my fourth Dostoyevsky novel in the past 18months. ## Features - Wordsworth Classics - It takes the reader on a compelling journey - The text is easily understandable - Product - Book ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #80,468 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,267 in Classic Literature & Fiction #6,598 in Literary Fiction #11,044 in Genre Fiction | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 385 Reviews | ## Images ![Devils - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91NAPpn5EhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ❤️ *by T***N on 9 June 2025* Slow start but definitely worth it.

Set in a small Russian town, the story follows a group of intellectuals and revolutionaries who plot to overthrow the established order, but their ideals quickly spiral into chaos and violence. At the heart of the novel is the character of Pyotr Verkhovensky, a manipulative and charismatic figure who seeks to incite a revolution, and his interactions with a variety of characters, each representing different facets of society. Through these characters, Dostoevsky explores themes of nihilism, the search for meaning, and the consequences of abandoning moral and spiritual values in pursuit of political goals. ## Frequently Bought Together - Devils (Wordsworth Classics) - The Idiot (Wordsworth Classics) - The House of the Dead and The Gambler (Wordsworth Classics) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://macedonia.desertcart.com/products/769833944-devils](https://macedonia.desertcart.com/products/769833944-devils) --- *Product available on Desertcart Macedonia* *Store origin: MK* *Last updated: 2026-08-24*
