A minor official Makar Devushkin helps his orphaned distant relative Varenka arrange her life in St. Petersburg. He is clumsy, awkward and often ridiculous. She is young, naive and barely staying afloat. In the face of an indifferent, huge world, two lonely people have only one salvation - to write piercing letters to each other.

Dostoevsky literally gathered prototypes for his first work around himself: since childhood, he saw with his own eyes the sorrows and joys of poor people, patients of his father, who served as a doctor at the Mariinsky Hospital, and Dostoevsky's sister, Varvara, inspired him to create the character of Varenka with her childhood memories.
