{"product_id":"the-dream-of-a-ridiculous-man-9781544838915","title":"The Dream of a Ridiculous Man","description":"\"The Dream of a Ridiculous Man\" is a short story by Fyodor Dostoyevsky written in 1877. It chronicles the experiences of a man who decides that there is nothing of any value in the world. Slipping into nihilism with the \"terrible anguish\" he is determined to commit suicide. A chance encounter with a young girl, however, begins the man on a journey that re-instills a love for his fellow man. It was first published in A Writer's Diary. A BBC production called \"The Dream\" (1990) was adapted by Murray Watts from \"The Dream of a Ridiculous Man\". \"The Dream\" is a monologue. The director was Norman Stone (\"Shadowlands\") and it stars Jeremy Irons.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10348038\"\u003eConstance Garnett\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11036196\"\u003eDostoyevsky Mikhailovich Fyodor\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/22\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.05d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781544838915\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1544838913\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-LCO\"\u003eLiterary Collections\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-LCO000000\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44573512761581,"sku":"9781544838915","price":8.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_92d7608a-6568-4d6f-bc12-f6643811a7d9.jpg?v=1701975313","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/the-dream-of-a-ridiculous-man-9781544838915","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
