"The House of the Dead" (also known as "Notes from a House of the Dead" or "Notes from the House of the Dead") is a novel by Fyodor Dostoevsky, written in 1860. It draws on Dostoevsky's own experiences as a prisoner in a Siberian labor camp, where he spent several years as punishment for his involvement with a group of intellectuals who were critical of the government. The novel is presented as a fictionalized memoir, with the narrator, Aleksandr Petrovich Goryanchikov, recounting his life in a Siberian prison. Through Goryanchikov's eyes, Dostoevsky explores the brutal conditions, the dehumanizing effects of incarceration, and the relationships formed among the prisoners. The narrative reflects the author's keen psychological insight as it examines the complexities of human nature in an extreme and challenging environment.
