Description

A retired clerk in St Petersburg who will not join the living. Hear Dostoyevsky’s Notes from the Underground unabridged in English: spite, free will, the mouse-hole of modern consciousness. The underground man talks; you cannot make him stop. Isolation as a performance, resentment as a philosophy, a confession that still feels like next week. Adelphi’s spoken edition — not a summary. The inner monologue as the plot. Listen to a mind that would rather be right than happy, and cannot manage either.
