Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky's masterful translation of The Idiot is destined to stand with their versions of Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov, and Demons as the definitive Dostoevsky in English.After his great portrayal of a guilty man in Crime and Punishment, Dostoevsky set out in The Idiot to portray a man of pure innocence. The twenty-six-year-old Prince Myshkin, following a stay of several years in a Swiss sanatorium, returns to Russia to collect an inheritance and "be among people." Even before he reaches home he meets the dark Rogozhin, a rich merchant's son whose obsession with the beautiful Nastasya Filippovna eventually draws all three of them into a tragic denouement. In Petersburg, the prince finds himself a stranger in a society obsessed with money, power, and manipulation. Scandal escalates to murder as Dostoevsky traces the surprising effect of this "positively beautiful man" on the people around him, leading to a final scene that is one of the most powerful in all of world literature. Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket. Everyman's Library Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times.

"The Twelve" An Amazing Compilation !!
Format: Paperback
I have not been able to put this latest addition to the Passion Translation down! The Excursus on the Minor Prophets is excellent and so helpful in understanding each prophetic book. Dr. Simmons has titled the compilation "The Twelve" and it guides you on a journey from Hosea through Malachi. This is the latest endeavor is a must for anyone who desires to go deeper into the understanding the scriptures from a Godly perspective. From the introduction to each book to the in-depth notes you will be amazed and challenged at richness of God's word. A great gift for family and friends who desire a deeper understanding of scripture. You will not be disappointed.

An oldee but a goodee
Format: Paperback
I've been following Andrew for over 40 years and this is one of his long standing messages. It's an eye-opener in its revelation of what causes hardness of heart in a believer-but he doesn't stop there. He also shows the remedy.
A must-read for anyone wanting to follow in the footsteps of the Lord Jesus.
