Dostoevsky and His New Testament

«Dostoevsky & his New Testament» accounts for the significance of the Gospel for the author. Right at the end of his New Testament Dostoevsky marked the following words from the Revelation: «I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end» (XXII, 13). The same could be said of this «eternal book» that followed the writer from the cradle to the grave and which became a formative influence in his writing.
