Set in the 1870s, a time of social disorder in Russia, An Accidental Family is the story of Arkady Dolgoruky, an awkward, illegitimate twenty-year-old on a desperate search for his family. This new translation of Dostoevsky's last completed novel fully captures the raciness and youthful vigor of the original text, and expresses "the innermost spiritual world of someone on the eve of manhood at that tumultuous time."

"Raw Youth," also known as "Adolescent," is a three-part novel by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. It tells about the 19-year-old Arkady Dolgoruky, an illegitimate son of a wealthy landowner who grows up in Russia after the abolition of slavery. Like many of his age, he is overwhelmed by nihilist moods which comprise a negative attitude towards the Russian culture. His nihilism grows in opposition to his father and the "old" way of thinking, as well as attempts to establish his place in society.

The Raw Youth (1875), also known as The Adolescent, documents the life of an ambitious 19 year old boy, Arkady Dolgoruky, illegal son of a self-indulgent landlord. It is a convincing portrayal of youth that completely captures the idealism, frustrations, and ambition of that particular age. The transition from the old ways to the rampant new ideology of Russian youth is beautifully captured.

The narrator and protagonist of Dostoevsky’s novel The Adolescent (first published in English as A Raw Youth) is Arkady Dolgoruky, a na•ve 19-year-old boy bursting with ambition and opinions. The illegitimate son of a dissipated landowner, he is torn between his desire to expose his father’s wrongdoing and the desire to win his love. He travels to St. Petersburg to confront the father he barely knows, inspired by an inchoate dream of communion and armed with a mysterious document that he believes gives him power over others. This new English version by the most acclaimed of Dostoevsky’s translators is a masterpiece of pathos and high comedy.
