His arrival in society sets off a series of dramatic events and interpersonal strife centered around himself and his distant relations.\u003cstrong\u003eThe Idiot\u003c\/strong\u003e drew upon many of Dostoevsky's significant personal experiences, such as his \u003cstrong\u003eRussian Orthodox\u003c\/strong\u003e faith, his experience of nearly being executed in \u003cstrong\u003e1849\u003c\/strong\u003e, and his own struggle with epilepsy, all of which inform his depiction of \u003cstrong\u003ePrince Muishkin\u003c\/strong\u003e's distinctive psychology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 872\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.94 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 26, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48709297504505,"sku":"9791043137600","price":53.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/ybCnskJYG39791043137600.webp?v=1784923592","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-idiot-paperback-4","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
