"Demons" (1871-1872)-probably the most prophetic novel by Dostoevsky. Originally conceived as an acute political thing based on the writer"s impressions of the “Nechaev process”: a group of revolutionaries was tried for the murder of a student who decided to leave their circle - the novel far out of the “anger of the day”. A real drama: In the center of the story, a group of nihilists, led by Peter Verkhovensky, planning to raise the turmoil throughout Russia. The main character of the novel by Nikolai Stavrogin - his own secret, his terrible sin and his own great trouble - he is completely devastated, and life no longer represents any interest for him. Events in the novel are swinging in front of the reader, confused in some kind of monstrous ball and as a result are allowed by tragedy.
The present in Dostoevsky’s novel is closely connected with the past: he sees the origins of nihilistic moods in their children-idealists who do not know at all at all Russia. But the uniqueness of the “demons" is also that, on the example of these characters, Dostoevsky paints all of Russia obsessed with demons - yesterday, today, tomorrow madness haunts us
