Fyodor+Dostoevsky

 //Fyodor Dostoevsky was a Russian novelist, journalist, and writer of short stories. He was born in 1821. Growing up in Moscow, Dostoevsky was educated in private and home schools. It was not until his mother died in 1837 that he attended St. Petersburg college, where he majored in army engineering. He is known today for trying to find the innerworkings of the soul. His most famous work, __Crime and Punishment__, deals with the theme of alienation from society in which the main character feels that he has the right to kill those who he feels that he is better than. After becoming a Utopian socialist, Dostoevsky was arrested and sent to join the military. Afterwards, he became a monarchist. Throughout his life, Dostoevsky had two wives, both of which bore him no children. He died in 1881 due to bad health that was prevalent throughout the majority of his life.//
