Summary

🔥 A society on the edge. A revolution brewing. A novel that shook the world to its core.
Step into the dark heart of Russian society with The Possessed, Fyodor Dostoevsky's explosive exploration of ideology, rebellion, and moral collapse. 🧨🖤

Based on real events and radical movements of 19th-century Russia, this gripping tale dives deep into a community torn apart by political extremism, nihilism, and spiritual emptiness. 🕳️⚖️

When a group of intellectuals and anarchists unite to spark chaos, the lines between idealism and madness begin to blur. At the center is Nikolai Stavrogin, a hauntingly enigmatic figure whose descent into moral ambiguity drives the narrative with unstoppable force. 🌀💀

💡 More than a political novel, The Possessed is a prophetic warning—a fierce commentary on fanaticism, free will, and the consequences of losing one's spiritual compass.

Whether you're a fan of classic literature, philosophical fiction, or fast-paced psychological drama, this masterpiece will challenge your mind and stir your soul. 🧠💣

    Booker Taliaferro Washington (April 5, 1856 - November 14, 1915) was an American educator, author, orator, and adviser to several presidents of the United States. Between 1890 and 1915, Washington was the dominant leader in the African American community and of the contemporary black elite. Washington was from the last generation of black American leaders born into slavery and became the leading voice of the former slaves and their descendants. They were newly oppressed in the South by disenfranchisement and the Jim Crow discriminatory laws enacted in the post-Reconstruction Southern states in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
THE CULTIVATION OF STABLE HABITS: I am going to speak with you a few minutes this evening upon the matter of stability. I want you to understand when you start out in school, that no individual can accomplish anything unless he means to stick to what he undertakes.

    Northanger Abbey was the first of Jane Austen's novels to be completed for publication, in 1803. However, it was not published until after her death in 1817, along with another novel of hers, Persuasion. Northanger Abbey is a satire of Gothic novels, which were quite popular at the time, in 1798-99. This coming-of-age story revolves around Catherine Morland, a young and naïve "heroine", who entertains the reader on her journey to a better understanding of the world and those around her. In the course of the novel, she discovers that she differs from those other women who crave wealth or social acceptance, as instead she wishes only to have happiness supported by genuine morality.
Seventeen-year-old Catherine Morland is one of ten children of a country clergyman. Although a tomboy in her childhood, by the age of 17 she is "in training for a heroine" and is excessively fond of reading Gothic novels, among which Ann Radcliffe's Mysteries of Udolpho is a favourite.
