Robert L. Belknap is the author of The Structure of ""The Brothers Karamazov,"" which is generally regarded as one of the best studies on Dostoevsky produced by the present generation of scholars. The Genesis of ""The Brothers Karamazov"" continues and complements Belknap's earlier work, tracing Dostoevsky's last, great novel to its sources and exploring the works Dostoevsky read and consciously employed in constructing it.
