The Double

Short description

Is about a government clerk named Golyadkin who meets his exact double, leading him to question his own identity and sanity

Description

"The Double" is a fascinating novella by Fyodor Dostoevsky. It tells the story of a government clerk, Yakov Petrovich Golyadkin, who encounters his doppelgänger—an exact replica of himself but with a completely opposite personality. As the doppelgänger gradually takes over his life, Golyadkin spirals into madness, exploring themes of identity, reality, and the fragility of the human psyche. Intriguing and unnerving in equal measure!
