In the first volume of Vsevolod Vladimirovich Krestovsky's adventure novel, "St. Petersburg Slums: A Book of the Well-Fed and the Hungry," events unfold in the first half of the 19th century. The grand squares and backstreets of this beautiful city paint scenes of the moral decline of its inhabitants: regardless of their lofty status, they are all depraved and unhappy in their own way.

The second volume of Vsevolod Vladimirovich Krestovsky's adventure novel, "St. Petersburg Slums: A Book of the Well-Fed and the Hungry," vividly depicts the darkest and most dismal aspects of 19th-century St. Petersburg life. He describes in meticulous detail the moral decline of man and vividly demonstrates the tragic consequences of social stratification.

The novel is embellished with atmospheric illustrations by St. Petersburg artist Tatyana Evgenyevna Kosach.
