"Lively, fast-flowing.... the voiciest translation of the novel thus far. [Katz] writes at the fever pitch of speech, unleashing the speed and the chaos of the original." ―Jennifer Wilson, The New Yorker

A monumental new translation―the first in more than twenty years―of Russia’s greatest family drama, rendered with all the passion, humor, and soul of the original.

Dostoevsky’s final, greatest novel, The Brothers Karamazov, paints a complex and richly detailed portrait of a family tormented by its extraordinarily cruel patriarch, Fyodor Pavlovich, whose callous decisions slowly decimate the lives of his sons―the eponymous brothers Karamazov―and lead to his violent murder. In the aftermath of the killing, the brothers contend with dilemmas of honor, faith, and reason as the community closes in on the murderer in their midst. Acclaimed translator Michael R. Katz renders this masterpiece’s nuanced and evocative storytelling in a vibrant, signature prose style that captures all the power of Dostoevsky’s original―the clever humor, the rich emotion, the passion and the turmoil―and that will captivate and unsettle a new generation of readers.
