In this work the reader will not find a story to follow its events, rather it is closer to being a book from which Dostoevsky wanted to express ideas and a view of life through a negative character of a person whose heart is filled with bitterness and contempt for people and for himself.
It was said about this novel that it expresses A pessimistic trend defined by the nineteenth century, among the most prominent of whom were Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, and Schopenhauer. We see the hero attacking the theories of morality, utility, interest, and the positivist and materialist theories that were popular at that time.
Dostoevsky wrote this novel in two parts, the first part of which is nothing but a kind of human conversation with himself, or is a kind of confession, he says: "I am a sick man... a wicked person... I have nothing that attracts and fascinates." In this section, the intellectual and philosophical aspect prevails. He refuses to even stand in front of the wall of science, refusing to accept that 2 x 2 = 4, saying: "What do the laws of nature and mathematics concern me if these laws do not satisfy me and do not like me? I refuse to be humiliated in front of this barrier...".
As for in The second section, we see him entering the world of literature and poetry through comments on some works, and on the world of facts through his view of his society, and through a relationship with a prostitute who thinks delusional that he will save her from the deterioration that awaits her.
