An alcoholic will always put their need for drink before their family and, sadly, this story is no different.
'Netochka Nezvanova' is an unfinished novel by Dostoevsky that the author started writing before his arrest and exile to Siberia. Telling the story of Netochka, born in the family of a drunken father who drives them to poverty, the novel shifts its focus on the heroine's psychological state and the resulting trauma from her "rescue" by an aristocratic family.
A tale of tormented artists, family abuse, and melodramatic responses, 'Netochka Nezvanova' is a very eye-opening read.
