The Possessed Or, The Devils (unabridged)

Pyotr and Stavrogin lead a Russian revolutionary cell with ambitions to overthrow the Tsar, disrupt society, and take control. They train dedicated terrorists ready to sacrifice their lives for their cause. However, when their group faces exposure, will their recruits be willing to eliminate one of their own to safeguard their secrets? “Demons” (also known as “Devils” or “The Possessed”) by Dostoevsky draws inspiration from a real-life political murder and offers a stark critique of those who resort to violence in the name of their beliefs. This novel is the third of Dostoevsky’s five major works.
