The article focuses on the book "The Friend of the Family, or Stepanichikovo and Its Inhabitants, and Another Story," by Fyodor Dostoevski, translated from the Russian by Constance Garnett. Of the two stories in the twelfth and last volume of Mrs. Garnett's admirable translation of Dostoevski, one, "Nyetochka Nyezvanov," was written before his imprisonment; the other, "The Friend of the Family," after his release from the "house of the dead," while he was still in exile in Siberia, and therefore before the appearance of any of the great novels, excepting "Poor People."
