In The Dream of a Ridiculous Man, Fyodor Dostoevsky crafts a profound and philosophical tale of despair, revelation, and redemption. The story follows a man on the brink of suicide, convinced of the meaninglessness of life, until a surreal dream transports him to a utopian world untouched by corruption. As he experiences pure innocence and harmony, he soon witnesses the tragic fall of this paradise—mirroring the flaws of human nature. Awakened with newfound purpose, he grapples with the burden of truth and the desire to share his vision with the world.
A powerful meditation on morality, existentialism, and the potential for human goodness, The Dream of a Ridiculous Manis one of Dostoevsky’s most moving and thought-provoking works. Experience this timeless story in an immersive audio adaptation, brought to you by Public Domain Stories.
