In her book, anthropologist M.V. Volotskoy traces the destinies of ten generations of the Dostoevsky family—from his paternal and maternal ancestors to the writer's grandchildren and great-nephews. Three hundred essays contain biographical information, as well as details about the health and creative abilities of each family member. The author reveals little-known facts about the life of Fyodor Mikhailovich and his relatives, recounting family feuds, murders, and scandalous misalliances reflected in the novels of the brilliant writer. The study includes rare archival documents, family correspondence, memoirs and literary essays by the writer's heirs, as well as a generational chart of the Dostoevsky family. In the concluding section, M.V. Volotskoy analyzes the typical psychological traits and family pathologies that shaped the personality of Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky and determined the fates of several generations of his family.
