This novel is divided into three parts and portrays a group of revolutionaries and radicals in a provincial Russian town. It explores themes of political radicalism, nihilism, and the consequences of ideological extremism. The story delves into the psychology of its characters, their moral dilemmas, and their struggle with the ideas and ideologies that engulf them."Dostoevsky's "The Possessed" is a profound work that examines the human condition, societal unrest, and the clash of ideologies prevalent in 19th-century Russia. The characters' internal conflicts and the exploration of their motives and beliefs make it a compelling and thought-provoking read.
