It is an emotional novel that tells about four nights in Petersburg, with its short nights that symbolize the fleeting love story that Dostoevsky tells us.... A lonely and romantic young man meets one night on a dark street in Petersburg with a crying girl hoping for the arrival of her lover. Nastenka identifies with the imagination of the young man who fell in love with her from the first moment, and comforts him with the mirage of a newborn love.
This novel deals with many things in a few pages: the delirium of a dreamy young man, the hopes of a girl in love, the story of a successful meeting and a failed love, the justifications and excuses of the lover in the moment of amorous waiting... in a unique and beautiful style that distinguished Dostoevsky, this great novelist who did not stop diving throughout his life. In the human psyche, and revealing its depths and hiddenities.
