Winner of the CMA 2026 Book Award for Edited Collections: Classic Authors (2nd Place)
Considered by some to be the greatest novel ever written, The Brothers Karamazov stands as a masterpiece of Russian literature. In the trials of three brothers—Dmitri, Ivan, and Alyosha—Dostoevsky traces threads of the deepest questions, from belief and doubt, to joy and suffering, to hope and despair. Dostoevsky himself was a man of profound faith who did not shy away from the darkest aspects of human life. His narrative, both intensely scriptural and inextricably Russian, combines ardent emotion, vigorous dialogue, and penetrating psychological insight to search the mysterious depths of the heart.

“Dostoevsky, at the end of his life, seems to have been trying to draw together everything he had felt, longed for, and worried about into a single novel.”
—Jason M. Baxter, from the foreword
