About the book: 2015 / "...I completely refuse the highest harmony. It is not worth the tear of even one tortured child who beat himself in the chest with his little fist and prayed to God in a stinking kennel with his unredeemed tears.” This quote, belonging to the hero of the novel “The Brothers Karamazov,” is perhaps the cornerstone thought of the work of F. M. Dostoevsky, a writer who sought to solve the eternal questions of existence in his work: “They call me a psychologist: it’s not true, I’m only a realist in the highest sense, i.e. "I depict all the depths of the human soul." The book “A Child’s Tear” includes autobiographical prose, historical reflections and literary criticism written in 1873, 1876. Published diary entries still make more and more readers think hard, delve into the essence of things, thereby comprehending the spirituality of all things. Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky is a great artist-thinker who believed in the triumph of the “living” human soul over external violence and internal fall. The novels he created “Crime and Punishment”, “The Idiot”, “Demons”, “The Brothers Karamazov” to this day excite the consciousness of readers, striking with their depth and penetration.
