"White Nights and Other Short Stories" is a fantastic collection of short stories by prolific Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky. Stories included in this collection are—White Nights, Notes from Underground, A Faint Heart, A Christmas Tree and a Wedding, Polzunkov, A Little Hero, and Mr. Prohartchin.White Nights is the story of a young man fighting his inner restlessness. A light and tender narrative, it delves into the torment and guilt of unrequited love. Both protagonists suffer from a deep sense of alienation that initially brings them together. A blend of romanticism and realism, the story appeals gently to the senses and feelings.
