    [Preview] White Nights by Fyodor Dostoevsky

    Listen to the full episode for free on Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/litsocietypod/membership White Nights is a short story by Fyodor Dostoevsky that was published in 1848. Set in St. Petersburg, it is the story of a young man fighting his inner restlessness. A light and tender narrative, it delves into the torment and guilt of unrequited love. Both protagonists suffer from a deep sense of alienation that initially brings them together. A blend of romanticism and realism, the story appeals gently to the senses and feelings.   LET'S GET LIT!   Find Alexis and Kari online:  Instagram — www.instagram.com/litsocietypod Twitter — www.twitter.com/litsocietypod Facebook — www.facebook.com/LitSocietyPod Our website — www.LitSocietyPod.com.  Subscribe to emails and get free stuff: http://eepurl.com/gDtWCr    (Book summary partially from Goodreads)
