Description & Specifications

A love that never managed to become a meeting. A young woman lies dead on the table. A few hours earlier, she had fallen from the window, tightly holding an icon of the Virgin Mary in her hands. Her husband paces relentlessly between the two rooms of their house, trying to understand. He recalls their first meeting, the marriage proposal, the brief moments of happiness, the conflicts, and the silence that gradually spread between them. He talks to himself, as if to an invisible judge — and to the reader. But the more he seeks the truth, the more he reveals what he tries to hide. Behind love appears the need for possession; behind protection, control; behind severity, fear and wounded pride. Every memory leads him closer to an awareness that comes far too late. In the form of a powerful inner monologue, Dostoevsky penetrates the deepest mechanisms of self-deception. He does not merely narrate the collapse of a marriage; he reveals the way in which a person transforms the need to be loved into a desire for possession and protection into control. The Quiet Soul is a relentless novella about loneliness, guilt, and our inability to see the one beside us — as long as there is still time.
